VBS

Will participated in VBS for the first time ever this week.  He LOVED it & I have to admit I enjoyed the 3 hours with just Ellie in the am.  It did confirm, however, that he is not ready to go to 5 day a week preschool or even 3 day a week all day preschool.  He comes home exhausted!

My mom (Lovie) was his teacher and that worked out great.  Since it is not our home church, I would have been a little nervous about sending him around so many unfamiliar kids.  When he goes to preschool, I will go the first day & introduce him to his class & answer any questions they may have, teach them about his zancos & limb differences, etc.  But, he will only be around kids near his own age - sending him to VBS where there would be lots of older kids that he would not necessarily be able to respond to, just didn't feel comfortable to me.  So, I was thankful Lovie saved the day!

The theme was "Hometown Nazareth" & Will loved learning about when Jesus was a boy.

I've loved the crafts he has come home with (making mint sea salt scrub above) & the verses he has learned every day.

Here he is reciting his first memory verse of the week:
