So today we were invited to a celebration based on the United Nations Peace Day. It was organized by Abintra Montessori and all of the Montessori schools were invited to participate. I was glad that Brandon's school participated. :) I was also VERY pleased that although our message was peace and that we are attempting to teach our children to be peaceful and go through life with grace they were supportive of our troops and the work that they are doing. (This is sometimes difficult for people to understand- wanting peace and supporting our troops.)
Being there and singing with everyone reminded me very much of our Utopian Society in High School and the peace rally we organized and hosted there.
Each school made doves to symbolize peace. During a portion of the program all of the children adn the different schools followed two GIANORMOUS doves around our area of the park-flying their individual doves. (I am saving Brandon's!)
Sorry all of the pics are at the top- I haven't figured out all of this blogging stuff yet!
