Happy Hanukkah!

Having the kids pick out their clothes the night before sure made the morning easier. Sure, Clara wore a long sleeve shirt with a blue tank top- yes - a tank top- over it, but she was happy!

They both knew is was Tuesday and a Club Lunch day and couldn't wait to help pack their lunch. And, they knew it was the first night of Hanukkah.

The gang headed to the library for the monthly crafts and made snow people. Clara and Emma joined their friend Maiya, and made quite beautiful and detailied snow people! All three were so excited to check if it was dark, because that meant that it was Hanukkah, of course!

The ladies helped Grandma and Grandpa Frome light their menorah virtually and then sang some songs. This year's favorites include the Macabee March and Dreidel.

Tonight, Emma was on the potty and had an interesting discussion with Mommy.

Emma: "Mommy, I have a great idea. You can record a Yo Gabba Gabba Hanukkah show, if there is one."

Mommy: "That is a great idea, but there isn't one."

Emma: "Maybe you can write a letter and tell them to make one for the Jewish people?"

Well, Emma, you are right. It would be nice if there were some other options on tv!
