Happy Three Kings Day!

The twelve days of Christmas end with epiphany or three kings day. This is the day the three kings following the bright star in the east, arrived bearing gifts to baby Jesus. In Mexico this is a big celebration as big as Christmas is to us here in America. Growing up my mom always had a king cake for us on this day and occasionally a small gift.

We celebrated with a king cake and coffee. I had made Lizzy a simple felt crown for her 1st birthday and today she got to play with it and wear it in honor of the three kings. The three kings brought Lizzy some shrimp forks (she loves these because they are pointy and she can actually use them to eat), a juice box holder (so that her juice boxes don't squirt if she squeezes them), a light switch extender (so she can turn the light in her room on and off), and some wooden play dough tools (she loves play dough right now). Happy three kings day to you and peace for the coming year!
