Last night Kara Christian Academy held it’s end of the year disco. Attendees included the Miller family, the Reeves family, the Ries family, Matt Waller, and our family. Andrea brought her disco ball and I provided a special playlist that included such disco greats as Dancing Queen, Staying Alive, Kung Fu Fighting, and the obligatory Y.M.C.A. We had ice cream sundaes, confetti poppers, and lots and lots of fun!
It seems a little weird but our school disco felt a little cathartic to me. There is something about laughing a lot, being silly, singing loud, dancing like a fool, and playing with your kids in the company of close friends that releases stress and tension. In our time here and I have been adjusting to the stresses of living in Africa and living in this culture. Some things are hard and can really wear you down, but it makes the carefree moments all the more enjoyable!
Man, that sounds like fun. Anyone dress up?
