Smelly Licky Maka.... wha?

Mele Kalikimaka


Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say 
On a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day 
That's the island greeting that we send to you 
From the land where palm trees sway 
Here we know that Christmas will be green and bright 
The sun to shine by day and all the stars at night 
Mele Kalikimaka is Hawaii's way 
To say "Merry Christmas to you."

To say "Merry Christmas to you."

So this boy.........

Is learning Christmas songs at school.  He came home singing something that had the words 'Christmas' 'Hannukah' and 'Kwanzaa' in it.  Not quite sure what song that is but I'm sure they're teaching them all about the holiday season.

On Wednesday he has another 'concert'.  The Preschool 3 and 4 classes will regale us with holiday music just like they did for Halloween.  This should be interesting......

My grandmother is teaching him the Mele Kalikimaka song because thats one of her favorites.  

Nicks version goes something like this:

Smelly licky maka

So 'Smelly Licky Maka' to you!
