Yesterday we celebrated Christmas. It was at our house and it was great. It was just us, the kids and Amanda’s parents, aunt and uncle. The food was great, so was the company and the time we spend together.

And, NO, wetting the tips of your fingers does not qualify as hygiene.

On a side note: Here is an instructional video on how to properly wash your hands, filmed by students from ITE College East:
