The last candle has burned down. The last of the gifts have been opened. There is still chocolate gelt and wrapping paper scattered about. Chanukah may be almost over but the reason we celebrate it lives on. I told the kids Chanukah is important because if the Maccabees did not win years ago, our lives now would be different. I explained that our actions now shape the future. Ethan thought more about recycling and our environment which was not where I was going with the conversation with them, but it was good so I went with it. Rachael then related it to being kind to others and standing up for what you believe in. Happy Holidays to everyone!
