The Ward Christmas Party

We had the Ward Christmas Party last Dec. 17. We arrived early to help with the decorations and other arrangements to the multi-purpose hall. While the adults were busy with preparations, the kids were practicing their dance numbers. I was amazed at the kids' choreography to 2 dance numbers - Don Romantico and Pinoy Ako. People were asking who taught them. Much as I would like to take credit, there simply was no way I would be believeable when I can't even tap my toes in harmony with the music while sitting down. I guess it could only be the videoke cds that you could sing and learn the dance to for just P30.00.

The primary children also exchanged gifts and received awards from their leaders. Justin, Jam, Jeremy and Johanna all got an award for Perfect Attendance. Justin and Jam got additional medals for Being Most Reverent in class.

Most of the children were happy with the gifts they received that night. Jeremy wasn't. He got a picture frame. So he got a lecture on appreciating the thought behind the gift. And the spirit with which it was given. He also got a yoyo to stop him bawling.
