Give Thanks


This year from Ash Wednesday to Easter we are doing a road to Easter Map. Each Sunday we begin a new task for the week. This Sunday is marked with a stop sign to remind us to stop and give thanks.

What a wonderful idea. It caused me to do the same. Hmmmm. Maybe you should have been a teacher!?

No, I am not blessed with the teacher gene but I try to make it enjoyable a little bit for the kids. Jordyn loves the crafts, Jackson just wants it to be done. Funny
