Future's So Bright.....

Hannah and Spencer didn't graduate from Preschool yet, but they had

a Preschool End of Year Party.

It included singing, food, and mini-Olympics.
Here are pictures of Hannah and Spencer doing the sack race.


As part of the ceremonies, the teacher did a small write-up on each of the kids.


Here's what they had to say about Hannah: "Oh boy! There is too much to say about Hannah in one little paragraph. She is a determined little girl and it's Hannah's way or the highway. For instance, one day she decided who could play and who couldn't play in the dramatic play center. Hannah thinks she is in charge all the time, which leads us to believe she will be the first female county sheriff.


Here's what they said about Spencer:


"Spencer is such a cute kid who is always doing stuff to make teachers laugh. As soon as the gate opens to the playground, he is the first one on the swing. He is a loving, energetic kid with the cutest dimples. Spencer is always playing with tools, therefore we think he will design and build skyscrapers."


The teachers asked the kids what they wanted to do in the future.

I laughed when I read what my kids had to say.

Here is Hannah and Spencer with the Preschool "Director", Mrs. Beuhlman. My 5 youngest children have all had her as their preschool teacher. Unfortunately, Hannah and Spencer won't get to "graduate" with Mrs. B. as their teacher.


She retired this spring. We will miss her terribly.

Russell is a Bear.

Russell has earned his Bear Scout Badge.


He was awarded his badge at Pack Meeting back in May.

I'm very proud of that boy.

A Child's Prayer

My children have informed my that I need to update.

So here you go....

Spencer likes to say prayer.


He likes to be the one to pray at mealtime.


(We had to explain that everyone needed a chance to pray)


He reminds me to help him at bedtime.


He even likes to have a turn for family prayer.


What is the thing he is the MOST thankful for?







THE FOOD.







The first thing he says after he opens his prayer

in EVERY prayer he offers:


"Thankful for the food."
