VBS

What an incredible time we had at VBS. This past week Emmalynn and I had the privilege of helping with VBS. It was so fun to see Emmalynn play with the kids, sing the songs and listen to the skits. Everyday after Monday, Emmalynn would come to me and say "kids kids"; wanting to know if we were going to see the kids again. I am thankful that the love of Jesus is being written on her heart at such a young age. Her favorite song was Joy Joy Joy, mainly because we got to jump on the "where" part.

Here is the certificate that she received at the end of the week. Maybe next year I will be able to get her to stand still long enough to hold it and have her in the picture with it. This time she just kept folding the paper, looking away, or tossing it down.

The kids played a game with balloons and shaving cream. Emmalynn thought it was edible at first. Then she realized that it was like what Daddy puts on his face. So, she put some on her face and then came and put some on my cheeks too.


There is nothing like watching your baby girl stand with other kids and thank Jesus for the day.

More games. As you can tell, Emmalynn never missed a beat. She liked to be in the middle of the fun. All of the older kids were wonderful with her.


My little angel. The last day we shared about the birth of Jesus. Most of the kids were apart of the skit in one fashion or another. The two girls with Emmalynn quickly grabbed her and made her an angel with them. It melted my heart how the girls took to Emmalynn and included her.


I pray that each child that was there will remember this VBS and that they will know Jesus personally. This was a special VBS and if you would like to know more about it and the ministry that hosted it just message me.
