traditions
the 3rd grade monkey has a homework assignment this week is to make a poster of our family's traditions... is encouraged to have help and also present her poster in the oral. we brainstormed today ideas. came up with four. came up with a FEW more. excitement grew as we started to map out the project. but now that the babes are asleep and crayons are put away i'm sad. our family lacks tradition. we lack the spiritual tradition i grew up cherishing. we have THINGS we do - but one could almost argue they are closer to habit than purposeful remembering... something new to work on now...

it's never too late, and the best are usually spiritually based....mk
artichokes. every meal i've eaten in your home has included yummy artichokes. that tradition is surely symbolic of something wonderful!
so much better than oatmeal. yes, you are about the only mom i know who raised her kids on artichokes and avocados. mk
artichokes! thanks so much for the reminder! i guess i never thought as a veggie as a 'tradition' but what better one could there be?
raising the kids these days more on beets and lentils - but rest assured the artichoke will always be esteemed in our home!!!
