Teaching Jeremiah, A Journey into the Mind of an Asperger's Child

Jun. 27, 2009

VBS was this last week.  We went to an evening one, which wreaked havoc on Jerry by the end of the week, as we did not get home until about 9:15 most nights....an hour or so past his bedtime.  But he had an awesome time learning how God cares for us, is all powerful, does what He says He'll do, gives us life, and cares for us.  He sang and did the hand motions to the songs, LOVED craft time the best, and paid attention to each Bible story reinactment.  I enjoyed it too as I went with him to each class every night to ensure his enjoyment and participation.  Here are some pics.
