Written Prayers

I cry out to you Lord and thank You in advance like John when he said ' Father, I thank you that you have heard me.  I knew that you always hear me."  (John 11:41b-42)  I pray confidently and with new fervor that you will answer the desires of my heart.  You know me and love me and have plans to prosper me.  I strive to be obedient to you today Lord and give You glory for all that You will do through me!"

What a beautiful morning!  We couldn't wait to get outside again today! Gorgeous.  Princess and I are in awe of the enormous amount of birds who have already made their way back home for the Spring.  While walking, we could hear the 'chorus' and I then praised the Lord for His awesome gift to us.  Birds singing makes me happy.  Doesn't it you?

Yesterday in Science we were answering the question, "How do Plants Prevent Erosion?"  Here's what was written by mOm in our Nature Journal after the experiment:  Our materials only consisted of an unwanted couple of weeds and water.  Princess softened the ground around the weed with water. After one minute, she carefully pulled the plant from the ground.  Princess said, 'I pulled the root up and the root system was strong and hard. I noticed soft soil was black and being held onto by the roots. It was cool how the roots keep the dirt from washing away."

 Princess looking at the roots securing the soil even when lifted away from the ground!

Fantastic lesson on erosion! I'll try to teach this in the summer when my garden needs weeding and kill two birds with one stone :-). I wish our weather was warmer so we could get outside longer. I'm a real weenie when it comes to cold weather.
Hope you're having a great weekend and blessings,
Julie
