Dia de los muertos

on October 31, 2012

In Spanish class today, each student had a little piece of paper. We wrote the name of someone who died and on the back, we wrote something about them that was special. Then, we went to the front of class and shared who we wrote. We then taped it on a tooth pick and put it in a tin pan that was filled with sand. I wrote my great Grandma Van Haitsma. She always talked about how she was so blessed by God. I thank God for her life.

I think ‘Dia de los muertos’ is a great day that we can celebrate/remember people who have passed away. I don’t think we should make a joke out of this. I think this is supposed to be a day we remember people, it’s supposed to be kinda sad.
