Crescent Beach on a perfect day. Wycliffe Kits.

Last week we got to go to Crescent Beach with Nanny on a perfectly warm Spring Day. We ran as far as we could one way and then as far as we could the other...Scouring for rocks, sand and sea creatures.

Here we are opening our free Wycliffe translation Kit. Simply... we can go online and find many weekly kids activities. We will have the opportunity to translate John 3:16 into another language. There is a journal included that we will be writing in. We can even plant the book mark that came in the kit...it will grow Black Eyed Susans:)

Garden

Daddy has tilled, made rows and put stakes in the ground with Aidan. Today, Aidan and I planned where we would plant our garden. Keeping shady areas, height of plants and spacing in mind. We discussed inches and 1/8 of an inch. Aidan put in his beans and then watered all of the seeds for me!

Mary helped feed the plants with a special blue plant food called Miracle Grow. Here they are enjoying the garden.

As I emerge out from under my oldest sons bed. I wonder if there could be more dust collected than this. I push forward with my cleaning though.. holding my breath. With a daughter who seems to epitomize "creative trail of mess and destruction" and a son who is "currently collecting and archiving" what seems to be every piece of Lego to date..I am tempted to throw up my hands and give in.
I can start ..one bed at a time...so today it is A's bed.
