One "Powerful" Week!

Daniel has just finished a wonderful week of Vacation Bible School at our church. He had an awesome time! The theme was "Power Lab" and it celebrated the power of the Lord. The biblical theme was centered around science (which the teacher in me LOVED!). They did several science experiments, sang and danced, did crafts, and learned so much. Daniel's teacher (which he said was a scientist, not a teacher) did an excellent job teaching him the religous as well as scientific aspects of her lessons. He came home each day excited about what he had learned that day. He would say "I can't wait to see what we learn and make tomorrow mom!" I only pray that his teachers in school will be such an inspiration. Thursday night there was a family dinner to see pictures from the week and hear our children perform some of the songs they had learned that week. I LOVE hearing him sing praises to the Lord with such enthusiasm! We had a great time, and Daniel was excited to spend some time playing with his friends and singing. He was a bit disappointed that they did not sing their songs on stage. There were simply too many children to fit (which is great!). Gran also bought him a CD with the music from the week, and he just has to sing along with it every day (several times!!!). I feel so blessed that we are a part of a church that is so "powerful" in its ability to reach my child!
