I think it would be nice of you

to include her and give her a little gift as well, with "Happy Holidays" on it--not "Merry Christmas."

That being said, I am really surprised by your plan to put up a Christmas tree. I assume this is okay with the school--you sound as if this is something you do every year. I personally don't think it's a good idea. I think it's saying that Christianity should be everybody's thing, whether they're Muslim, Jewish, Jehovah's Witness, or athiest. I really think this is not an okay plan, unless this is a private Christian school (which I don't think this is, with a child from S.A. But maybe it is).

momof2cuties, I'm sorry. You didn't ask for anything but an answer to your question. It's just that your question raised so many others for me.
