Fall festival was a big success at school today. It is a day
for kids to dress up in their Christian character outfits (Elleazah is the bee
from Noah’s ark), host booths for carnival type games, and serve food- with the
goal of raising money for their class, and training the students to work
together in planning and executing community activities. Considering we are working
with the seniors, our class is very focused on raising money for their class
trip, which takes place at the end of May. Elleazah had a great time at the fall
festival. Though it is the rainy season right now, we had sunny skies. Elleazah
was still a bit young for the games, but she did enjoy getting her face painted
by the 9th grade class. She also had her first taste of cotton
candy. At first, she didn’t know what to make of the fact that the cotton just
seems to melt in the mouth, but once she realized it was sweet, she was always
ready of another taste! Needless to say, cotton candy will be considered a
special treat , only eaten once in a long while.
