Christmas was more of a ritual, and we did observe the gift giving, though we knew from the start that Santa was just an imaginary thing. And as for other holidays...well let's say we read about them in our Calvert School reading books, but since they were not practiced in Argentina, we were much more into 9th of July than the 4th, and we did not even get together with our parents' expat colleagues at Thanksgiving. The little church our parents were planting was truly the center of our life.Lhoythttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15156459372421476272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521399997088390580.post-1037415761912170402010-03-27T11:34:07.728-04:002010-03-27T11:34:07.728-04:00I love your expression in your blog header!

Very powerful program! Didn't even think about it until reading your memory of being in the play on the ship. One of your memories jogged one of mine :-)<br /><br />In Sta. Rosa to pick up W & K, and the internet is working this morning so I'm taking advantage to catch up on some blogs! <br /><br />Last night they took us to a new Tea House in Belgrano (opened just 9 months ago) that has not only amazing tea but also WIFI! So I was able to quickly facebook what we were doing :-) Love the internet and the keeping connectedness (is that a word?).<br /><br />Have fun on the training trip!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13256552315634307734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1521399997088390580.post-54212354299149763692010-03-26T20:42:18.829-04:002010-03-26T20:42:18.829-04:00sadly Easter for me was more about the easter bunn...sadly Easter for me was more about the easter bunny and candy than Christ when I was growing up.sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16558961544260341038noreply@blogger.com
