Happy Ayyam-i-Ha!!!

Happy Ayyam-i-Ha!
For those of you who don't know what that is...
Ayyam-i-Ha is a time of celebration for the Baha'is around the world. Our calender has 19 months with 19 days each. With the Christian calender, this only makes 360 days. So, we need to catch it up by 5 days! Ayyam-i-Ha means "Days of 5" in Persian (Farsi now). Depending on if the year is a leap year or not, we have either 4 or 5 days of giving gifts and seeing family.
Soooo...now that you are all caught up...
HAPPY AYYAM-I-HA!!!!!!!
