Instead of Halloween school celebrated International Day. Each kid picked a country in a specific continent. You picked South Africa. You learned about the country, made flags, and on Oct. 29th had an event at school for the parents. So each kid was suppose to dress in their country's clothes and make a dish to share with the fellow kids. Luckily, our new neighbors hail from South Africa. They loaned us a flag, coins, and a vuvuzela. You knew all about his country, where it was on the map, and how to blow the vuvuzela. Of course when it came time to do it for the school program .... it was a no go. You didn't want to participate at all. You didn't want to point to your country or sing along with your classmates. You cried and caused a scene. It was very typical you. (Ohh, and daddy made frikadelles—South African meatballs for everyone to eat.)
