Christmas III

Christmas is the way I celebrate. People celebrate Christmas in many ways. I only know two Hanukkah and Kwanzaa. Kwanzaa is celebrated for African Americans. Hanukkah is celebrated for jewish people. My friend Dana Itani she celebrates Hanukkah. She is Jewish. Hanukkah is celebrated with a special candle thing called a minorah. It is very goldish. I have never seen one but search up minorah on google and images and you find a picture. I don't happen to have any friends that celebrate Kwanzaa because I don't have any African American friends. But, it is celebrated with a kinora. It is like a minorah but only has 7 candles. there is like different levels on a kinora and so there are 3 steps on each side and then one in the middle. So, there is a candle on the top step in the middle and then 3 on each side. On a minorah it is just regular candles set up in a row with a base holder. A kinora is considered as a candle holder. I love Christmas! It makes me happy to know that Christmas is celebrated for different people in many ways that I don't know about. Although, I know that in this world, there are more than 2 ways to celebrate Christmas. People who celebrate Hanukkah are probably happy.African Americans that celebrate Kwanzaa are sure to be happy.
