Happy Flag Day Dis-huit Mai” (Eighteen May)


 Today, May 18th, in Haiti, Haitians young and old are celebrating Flag Day. 


 This is the song that is often sung today:  ( I can't read Creole yet, but we will try to sing it each year with Babycakes!)


Mon drapeau po po
Mon joli petit drapeau
C’est Dessalines qui l’a créé
mon joli petit drapeau
C’est Catherine Flon qui l’a cousu
Mon joli petit drapeau!


Here is a post from the GLA blog from last year-  May 18, 2011 GLA Toddler House Celebration 

UPDATE: Here are some pictures from this year's, 2012, celebration!

Happy Flag Day Babycakes- maybe, just maybe next year we can celebrate together!
