Fair Time

I took my son and youngest daughter to the fair. We had a Great time! We really enjoy the animal barns. Chickens (some of the funniest we have ever seen), chicks, goats, sheep, horses, cows, saw a camel and then...the bunnies. The children and I have fun personifying all of the bunny movements. We laugh and laugh! The rides were okay. My son went on the most. Though disappointed at some of the rides I wouldn't let him go on, tall enough or not, he completely enjoyed the ones he was allowed to ride. Then we played a game where you threw these little balls, one at a time, to try to get them all in a straight line. If you are the first to do so...you win. I am glad that in the Christian Race, it is not one of chance. Thank you, Jesus, that You have made it possible for us to be saved from sin and death. Thank You for the blood You shed at Calvary...Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice.

The Blessing of VBS

I had such great intentions of being able to blog sooner than this. But, I have no regrets. This week has been vacation Bible School at church and I am loving it. I work for my brother and he gave the okay that Mom could answer the phones during the morning hours this week so that I could take my youngest to VBS and participate myself. Mom agreed to the deal and I have totally enjoyed it!
I also pick up a couple of young girls in our area and they have been going with us. Today on the way home my son was humming and singing one of the songs they are learning. He was doing so with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. Learning a bit of self confidence. He said he was rewarded by two of the teachers for sitting quietly during the events of the day. Very proud of him...this is truely work for him.
I'm loving the Veggie Tale week we are having and teaching about heroes of the Bible! I'm working with Miss Brenda on crafts. Todays craft was fun, just very detailed for the time alotted. Miraculously, everything was finished on time. Today's theme...True Heroes do the right thing.
