Today is a public holiday in Cameroon – it the known here as Fête du Mouton. It is a celebration in remembrance of God providing a ram to take the place of Ishmael who Abraham was told to sacrifice according to Islamic tradition. This is a holiday that is a bit of a moving target since it is set according to seeing the correct phase of the moon.
For us it means a day off school and a chance to rest a bit, catch up on projects at school and at home and also remember some of the amazing gifts God has given to us.
