Secret Sister Saved the Day!!

Thank you Secret Sister!! Wow I got a great box of goodies! She gave me a big tub of foam animal sticker (which actually saved the day). A Valentine card making kid (oh so cute)- (BTW I actually have the stickers that go with it- I plan to use for a scrapbooking page). She also gave me cute stationary pad and pen that went straight into my purse to use. And she sent 3 awesome rulers that have kids on them holding hands. When you slightly turn the ruler the kids raise their hands in the air. Oh this was a big hit!!!


So back to how she saved the day. I had a very busy week/ weekend. My husband's birthday was on Sunday. That day also happened to be the Chinese New Year. So I decided to combine the two and make it a Chinese Birthday party for him. The Kids helped make lots of decorations while learning about the Chinese New Year. We made chain dragons, two different kinds of lanterns and we made a huge dragon costume for Daddy to wear. I had bought animal foamy things to put on the back of the dragon as decoration. When I got home I realized they were not stickers. URG! Well guess what...Secrect Sister Saved the day. Just what I needed at just the right time!

And here is the birthday boy. He loved his birthday. And he was impressed that I made it into a learning experience for the kids too.

Thank you again Secret Sister--It was a wonderful surprise!

Hello There! I just love all of your pictures. It looks like you and the kids have a blast together! I am using the Letter of the Week Preparatory program with my 2yo daughter. I'm not sure if I've ever seen the Little Hands to Heaven curriculm. I'll have to check it out. Anyhow, I hope you don't mind, but I have chosen you and your family for our BFS #18. I will pray for health and happiness for you and yours this week. If you have any specific prayer requests, please leave me a comment or e-mail me so I can pray for those also.
Love & Blessings,
(: Amanda :)
