This week we started an adventure book. DS7 enjoyed the treasure hunt activity to introduce the genre. We chose A Lion to Guard Us to read. We also read the extra books as listed in the emerging readers section --- not the early Bible but like this week was Snowshoe Thompson and next week is Dolphins.
earlier today we went to an historic place not to far from us with the neighbor boy and my Intro to Jewish Roots class instructor, his wife, and 2 of their granddaughters.

Praying for a second child since june 2002 -- you'd cry too,
even DS cries to be a big brother
Prayers deeply appreciated that HE would bless us
with more healthy arrows...and quickly.
May YHVH bless thee, and keep thee:
May YHVH make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
May YHVH lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee Shalom. |
