Vacation Bible School sneaked up on me this year and for the first time in a very long time I wasn’t exhausted before day one. After four years of coordinating the event at our local church and many more as craft girl and designated decorator, I finally handed the reins to somebody, anybody, else. I always have a blast at Vacation Bible School and consistently have been blessed by doing what I did, but it was finally time to pass along those VBS blessings to someone else.
Lazy Summer Evenings
Do you ever have one of those lazy summer evenings that just strike you as being special for absolutely no particular reason? Maybe it’s the mere existence of a rare night with nowhere to be, perhaps it’s a break in the weather, or maybe it’s just a good meal off the grill and dinner together that makes these summer evenings so special. Friday was one of those nights.
Sketch Challenge Salute to a Special Teacher
Another school year is finally winding down and that means we have to cram in all sorts of spirit weeks, field days, special celebrations and, of course, teacher appreciate day. I have a suspicion that a lot of these events are probably just fluff to get the students and especially the teachers through the final weeks of school, but I can definitely get on board with teacher appreciation day (or week, if you are in our district) because the thought of having 25 of my sons in one small square-shaped room for any length of time is just plain exhausting. . . and I think he is actually a good student.
