Rosenfeld news bt Tina Wolfe Dec. 24, 2013


December 22, Rosenfeld news by Tina Wolfe

            The weather outside is frightful but I hope the warmth within your home and heart keeps you cozy this holiday season. Take care when travelling and heed the saying “Better late than never.” Throughout the holiday season enjoy whatever tradition your family has chosen whether it be gatherings or a quiet night at home.

School program

            The Rosenfeld School presented The Legend of the Christmas King as their Christmas musical on Thursday, Dec.19. I was fortunate enough to attend and enjoyed the program very much.

            The Kindergarten class became little reindeer while singing Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and the Grade 1 class donned aprons and chefs hats when reciting Christmas Cookies. Jackie Harms, teacher of the Grade 2 class, captured my heart when her class did a dance routine to Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives. The Grade 3 class rang ceramic bells and performed Jingle Bells and Silent Night. Then the Grade 4 class was on stage to read their own poems entitled Christmas Wishes, many which were printed in the Echo. The Christmas musical followed which of course portrayed the story of the search for the new born King. The choir sang throughout the play and the program was done much too soon.

            A huge thank you goes out to the students and staff of the school. Many hours of rehearsals take place before the final performance and every year the program is outstanding. A special thank you goes out to Sheryl Peters for her accompaniment on the piano.

 

Progress report

             I graduated from a 2 wheel to a 4 wheel walker which makes for a much more fluid walk. I’m still not winning any races but now can help set the table. This walker has a basket which I can fill with stuff and cart around. I climbed onto the exercise bike and tried going for a trip but that’s not happening yet. The right leg makes the entire circle but not the right leg so I’ll be doing exercises for a while. This cramping flu is still hanging on and it’s not any fun. All these Christmas goodies standing around and I can’t eat them. That’s not quite correct; I can eat them but pay dearly for it at the end of the day.
