This year has been really fun to teach Josh about the holidays. He is learning and understanding so much, and he has been so happy and excited. On the first night of Hanukkah we has a little low key celebration with lighting the candles and some easy pre-made latkes. We taught Josh about the menorah, which he calls "Hanaanaa" and told him the candles were hot. He was a pro at opening gifts, he must have remembered some from last year :-)
Last night we had a few people over to celebrate Hanukkah and I cooked latkes, brisket and apple sauce. We have been getting a bag of apples each week in our CSA and I have found the only way to keep up is to make apple sauce in the crockpot. Josh really enjoyed his latkes and apple sauce :) He also kept pointing to the menorah and saying, "Hanaanaa, hot".
Hopefully by next year Josh will be ready for some dreidel playing!
