back to my kinder days...

UPDATE:
although my heart was in the right place, my mind was NOT and i misspelled sweet Reese's name in this post and in the shaving cream... i will make another one soon! sorry to Katie and her family! i know the Lord heard my prayers despite my inability to spell!! :)

there are some days when i just miss being a kindergarten teacher!
we spent a dollar today... and did this! it was sooo much fun!

we printed letters... spelled our names... drew pictures...
and i managed to squeeze in our verse for the week (i realize that i forgot to post letter F last week... i will get it up soon.)
after allie wrote her name and i wrote the verse, i instantly thought of my faithful sister in Christ, Katie, and knew it was not a coincidence... i said a prayer for her and wrote reece's name in the shaving cream for the name gallery that Katie has. you can read her story here. we love you katie!
when it looked like caleb was going to call it quits, i threw some blocks on the table and that was AWESOME! they played at the kitchen table for over an hour today AND my house smells good!
what does a one year old do while all this fun is being had? play with blocks in the floor!

  7. I am so glad you liked the packet. I wouldn't think the blocks thing would be such a big hit either, but the ooey gooey lady said that when she did it with her students, they made a whole village in the yard and kept building it for weeks!
