We spent Christmas Eve (after being on time(!) to church and all that) at the beach. Later we had a yummy dinner of pork roast, mashed potatoes, rot kohl and peppermint-eggnog punch (minus the rum). Sally led us in Away in a Manger and Picture a Christmas after we convinced her that I have a Little Dreidel, while fun and upbeat, is not exactly a Christmas song (at least she doesn’t know any Kwanzaa songs yet, despite the best intentions of the Pinellas County School Board). Dick and I then performed a puppet show of the Nativity (hey, it wasn’t too sacrilegious, and it did keep the kids’ attention).
