It's been a week since I've posted and what a busy week it has been. As most of you have read, last week was VBS at our church. Overall the boys did great and didn't even cry on Friday. Imagine that, the last day they were used to it enough not to cry for Mommy.
Thursday was the traditional family night when the children perform for their parents and invited guests what they have learned from the week. We were blessed with a large crowd. After the performance, every one was invited to partake in hot dogs, cotton candy, popcorn and ice cream...just what every child needs before going bed. Families also enjoyed several games, hula hooping, musical beach towel chairs, fishing, and space jumps.
The boys did great on "stage". They were a little shy at first but by the last song they performed a little. It was their first "program" to participate, so considering, I was pleased. (Much better than in front of the camera at the Shake, Rattle and Roll car show). You will notice cousin Abbey in some of the pics below. Aunt Fiffy, Alex and Abbey came to watch the boys and Abbey felt the need to perform with the boys despite the fact that she none of the songs or motions. But that doesn't matter, she did what she does best...look cute and smile.
As a Christian parent, I pray they will keep the same enthusiasm for learning about Jesus throughout their life. It is such happy moments to see CB & BB along with their friends enjoy learning about Jesus and his love with excitement and anticipation. If only we as adults could remember the simplicity of His love when we experience our "adult" circumstances in life.
The boys had wonderful teachers, Ms Leslie, Ms Angie, and Ms Allison. Ms Leslie was so sensitive to each child's needs and personalities. She definitely blessed each of their little hearts with her patience and love.
Until next time, HB
