HAPPY CHILDREN’S DAY TO YOU TOO!

The Classroom Docs November 17, 2009 20:52

Anyone who’s been to Holy Ghost, Aluva will agree that our girls are total angels :) Apart from the rare occasions when they decide to be moody, they treat us with so much consideration, affection and a quiet dignity of their own, we call them our ‘Little Women’! :) But today we decided to celebrate Children’s day at our centre! A lil prayer, a yummy cake and gifts for the gals! Let the pictures do the talking:

It’s almost ironical when we say we teach ‘children’. Our kids in most centres, would have experienced in their childhood what most of us probably don’t in a lifetime…From despair to abandonment..hopelessness to poverty…it is not an attempt to paint a gory picture..but to simply salute each of these young survivors! Their lives may not be perfect but they still fight it out….they may have been scarred, but they have  effortlessly let us into their lives! They make you smile, sometimes make you weary, can turn a rotten day into a perfect one by getting all their chat on lines right:-)…but most of all make you stop complaining/swearing/blaming the system..and start trying to make their lives better! :)

Here’s to cotton candy dreams, scraped knees and the yellow park slide
Here’s to every kid who’s on the MAD ride!

Happy Children’s Day!
