Memories of Christmas Season

Christmas is a time of joy, celebration, and this past holiday season was no exception. The night before Christmas, my family and I kept things simple. We gathered around the dining table, enjoying a delicious meal together, sharing stories and laughter. After our meal, we settled down for the night, we didn't really waited for the Noche Buena and just went to bed.

On Christmas morning, the atmosphere felt something so familiar, it was exiting. We kicked off the day by playing games, a tradition that always brings us closer together. Luck was on my side and I won over a thousand pesos during our friendly competitions. The thrill of the games added an extra drop of joy to the day, and I felt grateful for the fun we shared as a family.

As December 29 approached, we prepared for a different kind of celebration. We traveled to Puro to partake in their fiesta.

Fast forward to December 31, the last day of the year, we woke up early to attend church. After the mass, we headed to the market to buy supplies for our New Year’s celebration. And for the next hours we waited and welcomed the new year.

Planting helps not only us humans, but also animals. Plants have many benifits, such as it serves as a shade for a hot day, it gives fresh air that clears out bad gasses, etc. Third, by choos...
