Profound thoughts, personal feelings, and what ever else strikes me as I traverse life's meandering path.

Thanksgiving party

My Pilgrims and Indians


Last minute adjustments
Welcome (good thing I don't get nervous talking in front of people
Telling the Thanksgiving story


Singing

Our Thanksgiving lunch, it was delicious!

 With the help of our school secretary, Kawaguchi-san, I planned and organized our the kindergarten Thanksgiving program.  It was a lot of fun and the kids were great.  They helped me tell the Thanksgiving story and sang three songs (all in English).  Everyone enjoyed themselves and we had lots of yummy food.  It was a blessing to be with my kids and their parents.  Unfortunately one of my boys was sick (you can see his pilgrim hat sitting on the piano off to the side).  I was sad that he and his mom had to miss our party, especially since all the kids did such a good job practicing.  But he is feeling better now.  And now we have our all-school Christmas program to look forward to.  I am thankful to be here in Okinawa and be able to teach such amazing kids!
