Happy Holy Days!
Happy belated birthday, Ben.
Since I seemed to have joined the list of slow-posting bloggers lately, check out his post today (Friday)--especially the last paragraph--for something good to read. There, Ben, I sent you readers for your birthday.
Joe's watching Elmo's World: Happy Holidays! (for about the 20th time) as I write this. It's a great little video about the various holidays celebrated this time of year (in America, anyway). The best part about this video is that it not only discusses the differences among the holidays by showing human families and muppets celebrating and/or explaining Christmas, Channukah, and Kwanzaa (and more), but it also delves into how all the holidays (and the people who celebrate them) are similar--perfect for the Unitarian Universalist pre-K RE teacher who is too busy to put together a lesson plan in December.
