At Literacies we will be closing up for Christmas tonight. For all of you who are having holidays this week, have a wonderful, festive time. We are feeling especially celebratory because Canada could see its first cross-country white Christmas since 1971!

Merry Christmas babies.
You surely treat us nice.
Now we feel like we're living in paradise.

This has been another challenging year to be a literacy worker. Long before bankers and auto-workers were feeling the effects of this recession, we saw many good projects and programs lose funding. We see more and more learning communities struggle to sustain themselves despite diminishing resources and too many colleagues struggle to make a living from the work they love and do so well. But through it all we see your unwavering commitment to learning, community, and justice. You strengthen our backbones, tickle our funny bones, and light up our wishbones. Thank you babies. You are paradise.
