Right frame of Mind

Last night, Paige decided to get her ears pierced. She was excellent. She didn't cry or flinch at all. In fact, she didn't even talk through the whole process. When we got home I asked her if she wanted to cry or if it hurt when she got her ears pierced. She told me, "No Mom. I just kept thinking to myself, Don't cry, Don't panic. It will be fine. Just be brave like God." Can you tell VBS was about how to "Fear Not"

In school, Hannah and Mariah have free time and get to write in their journals. I haven't seen Hannah's journal but wanted to share what Mariah wrote. This is in her words and the typos are deliberate because I'm following her spelling.

April 27:
Once upon a time there was a ant and a elephant. The ant name was Cook cook head. The elephant name was Big long trunk. The ant was on the elephant BFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF clube. The elephant was on the ant BFFFFFFFFFFFFFF clube. Cook cook-head is a gril. Big long trunk is a boy. They got mrayed togother. They had some babys. They had a lot of bays.
