Happy Holiday, Whatever You Celebrate

The hypocritical Buddhists are eagerly awaiting Santa Claus. In the interim, Merrick proudly presented his mother and father with their school-made Christmas gifts.

The young lad sewed the Matron a beautiful flowing heart, adorned with lace, on a hard red paper.

For his father, he sewed a rat.

Happy Hanukkah, Solstice, Christmas and Upcoming New Year!

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    Perhaps the Chinese in him considers the rat to be good luck.

    Happy holidays to you and all that is good and bright for the new year. You have to be Scrooge not to have a little bit of joy rub off on you during this time of the year. Even I can feel it. Here's to all the twinkly lights and to health and wellbeing.

    Will it be the year of the rat? In many cultures, the rat is intelligent and represents strength and good luck.
    At least, I hope that's what he intended when he made this gift. :)

    Lol, a rat.

    Happy holidays Matron.

    I'm sure Stryker will point you in the direction of the Simpsons episode where Richard Gere explains to Lisa that it's okay for Buddhist's to celebrate Christmas ;)
