Celebrations

Natalie

For me February has been a month of celebrations:

Starting with a holiday for celebrating the trees and plants.

Then it was Valentine's Day the celebration of love, friendship, unity and partnership.

Then my grandmother's 100th birthday.

Next week Purim, the Festival of Lots.

Join me and we could chat about your favourite month, or which holidays you like and why, how you celebrate - do you wear special clothes or eat special food? Do you give special gifts? What is the story surrounding the holiday.

Below are a couple of links showing which celebration is every day of this month, you can choose to celebrate or not.
