Answered Prayer

I am just so thankful that the Lord hears our prayers. I met with Ms. Kim on Monday, and it was a blessing to meet her. She is a Christian woman who has been doing daycare for 8 years, and the only reason she needs new children is because the other ones grew up and are now in late junior high. Grace and Ryan loved it there. We are going to have a picnic tomorrow with Ms. Kim and one of the litte girls that she watches. Maggie. She is willing to drive Gracie and Ryan to preschool, which I think I mentioned is Free for them, and Bailey. WoW! God is so good to hear our prayers! Thank you, Lord, for a sweet woman named Kim, with her very welcoming Apple spice smelling home, and her very warm, pretty smile. Thank you that she carefully prayed about this, and you brought us to her, and her to us.

I prayed last night for God to give me some good ideas for my classroom. I just wanted to have everything very put together and ready for the year. Well, I woke up this morning with a neat idea, which I know was God's. I woke up thinking about a tree that I could make. So I went to school, and put together a three dimensional tree with apples on it. In each apple I wrote a fruit of the spirit, and on the trunk I wrote, "We are learning to produce good fruit." I did this for Bailey when we homeschooled several years ago. I just made it a lot bigger for the big classroom.

Funny things from the kids....

Mommy: "Ryan, did you learn about Moses tonight in your class?"
Ryan: "Yeah, we learned about the firey bush."
Mommy: "Did you learn about Moses as a baby, or as a big person?"
Ryan: "Yeah, Moses grew up in a basket."

Grace: "Ryan, you know herby furwoaded? I woove that movie so bad!" :)

Bailey: Loves Hanging out with her friend Ashley, who tells very long, funny jokes.
Bailey: "Tell that long one, it's so hillarious..."

We are trying to cram in as much fun as we can before next week, and we are wearing ourselves out! It has been a week full of friends, sleepovers, ice-cream and fun! Lots of outside fun, too! Next week I will start work, and the following week, the kids will go to school. Time to say hello to Fall and bye to summer! I love the fall it is absolutely my favorite season!
