What a BEAUTIFUL day out! Thank you, God for this great day! I’m loving it…
Have to tell a quick story… yesterday Gino, Isabel and I were on our way to the bank around 9 a.m.. When out out the main road leading to our house, I spotted sitting in a large dead tree; a very large BALD EAGLE! It was so awesome, what a fantastic way to start the day! Unfortunately I didn’t have a camera to take any pictures!
Today’s Bible story was from Genesis 21:1-5 and was the story of Sarah the mother of Isaac.
The class made a sort of Mother’s Day cards with this verse on the outside…
“Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small,
And always leave fingerprints,
On the furniture and walls.
But every day I’m growing-
I’ll be grown some day,
and all those tiny handprints
Will surely fade away.
So here’s a little handprint
Just so you can recall,
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small.“
…talk about make your Mommy cry! Can she stay little a little longer?!?
On the inside of the card is a blue handprint…
with what appears to be a heart in the middle!
When I walked into class to pick her up, all the kids were holding these pictures for their mothers. Isabel and I with our cup of tea. “A cup of tea for Mommy and Me.” – with an actual tea bag tucked inside!
The special helper today was Mila. For show and tell Mila brought a brown stuffed dog. Whose name was Fluffy. For snack Mila brought to share, a sticky thing (not sure what this was!), fishy crackers, and juice.
