A few days before Christmas an impromptu party was planned at one of the student's house: 60 people showed up. I guess that shows that many of us had no plans and needed a way to celebrate the holiday together. We enjoyed fabulous traditional foods and enjoyed the company of many other people who had no family in town. On Christmas Eve, we made a construction paper nativity with Reagan and let him glue down the characters as we told him the story of Christmas. He loved hearing again and again how Jesus was born in a barn and was laid down to sleep in a manger. The next day we were able to skype with family and Reagan opened various gifts via skype from his grandparents and aunts and uncles.
