Christmas is For Everyone

I heave a sigh of relief as I reach the school hall in time. I pass by an exhibit showing a collision of stars (maybe the big bang theory) and another on the evolution of hats. I hear my daughter calling me, eager to show her history project.

We pass by other parents who are marvelling at their kid’s assignments and discussing whose would win the prize; until we reach a group of chuckling parents.

There stood a proud dinosaur with a Santa hat—and a note in my daughter’s handwriting arguing that dinosaurs celebrated Christmas ages ago. Needless to say, even though she didn’t win the history competition, she certainly received a lot of appreciation from the school’s creative writing teacher.
