It's May 1st, which means it's Labor Day in Costa Rica. It's a tricky holiday because, although schools are closed as well as a handful of businesses, most stores remain open.
The idea is there, however, and to commemorate the day, the kids school hosted a special assembly the day prior, complete with the kids dressed in a variety of career costumes for the occasion.
This time, kids were asked to choose a career within their family unit to represent. My 15 year old son decided to be an army cadet to represent my military uncle and cousin. My 10 year old was a pilot to represent my uncle, who flies for Southwest Airlines. And my daughter chose to be a flight attendant/ stewardess, a career my sister in law was very much obsessed with at one point in her life.
Hats off to all the hard workers out there, who make this world go round.
