Emma’s Christmas Story
Posted in : Addie, Emma, Family LifeToday I went to the school for two different things. First I was the secret reader in Addie’s class. We had a great time talking about pretending and dress up before reading Skippyjon Jones – the crazy Siamese cat who pretends to be a Chihuahua – by Judy Schachner. If you have not read this you should. Skippyjon has a bit of trouble obeying his Mama, so a little commentary is needed to round out the story. But his imagination is awesome, and reading it is fun due to the spanish accent you must read it with. “Holy Frejolies”
Secondly, I was at the school to help Emma’s class in the library. While there I got to see Emma’s teacher Mrs. Norton. Mrs. Norton took the opportunity to tell me that Emma recently wrote about a Christmas memory and the story was so dear that Mrs. Norton decided to share it with another teacher. Emma brought her writing home today. Here is her writing:
“My memory about Christmas is when Jesus was born on Christmas Day. I love Jesus so much. Jesus is the real meaning of Christmas not presents and tress. I believe in the true Christmas meaning.”
Merry Christmas!
