El día de la madre

Happy belated Mother's Day! I am learning more all the time just how much there should be a day like this at least once a month, if we wanted to give the proper appreciation for all that Moms do. Mothers are really the backbone of Pervian culture, receiving much more respect than Fathers. For this reason, Noah's preschool worked for weeks to do a special show in honor of all the kids' Moms. They rented a special municipal building for last Friday evening and had everyone get animal costumes (see our puppy below).



Each age group had a couple songs, for which they either acted (the older ones), danced, or in Noah's case, stood there watching the crowd of smiling people. It was absolutely adorable.



In church on Sunday, there were decorations, food, and a cute song about Moms from the kids.



Performing is definitely something new for Noah, but I know he'll get used to it.

In the evening celebrated by going out to get good old American pizza, one of Laura's favorites. I hope all you Moms out there had a great day and felt appreciated!
