Pumpkin Carving
Last night we had our annual pumpkin carving. Daddy is our official carver. Taylor and Isaac get to clean out the pumpkin goop. And I get the pleasure of finding the candle to go inside.
Ahhh, nothing like the smell of a pumpkin!
We found a poem online through Little Laplinks that we used to base our carving off of.
It turned out pretty nice. When Isaac saw the candle and the flame he wanted to know where the marshmellows were. If there is fire, there must be marshmellows!
I am a Jack O' Lantern
My light will shine so bright
For I am a Christian pumpkin
My symbols tell what's right.
My nose is like the cross
on which on Savior died
To set us free from sin
We need no longer hide.
My mouth is like a fish
The whole wide world to show
That Christians live in this house
And love their Savior so!
The story starts at Christmas
My eyes are like the star
That shone on Baby Jesus
And wise men saw from far
My color it is orange
Just like the big bright sun
That rose on Easter Day
Along with God's own Son.
And so on Halloween
Let's set our pumpkins out
And tell the trick or treaters
What God's love is all about!
