Armenian Christmas


Armenian Christmas is known to be celebrated on January 6th.  Instead of staying home and going to church, I decided to come to school.  In Armenian class, we painted initials of our name that our teacher Digin Seta made herself.  These weren't any regular letters, they were bird writings, which is known as Tchnakir in Armenian.  Each letter is made up by a bird in the shape of the Armenian letter.  After, we had some cake Digin Seta had brought in.  When I went home and showed the painting to my mom and dad, they loved it and they immediately knew what the painting was.  They seemed so proud of me, and my dad even framed the painting, which showed how much he cared.
