This week there is a switch to my normal question "How can I pray for you?"
Please pray for our family as we are on our mission trip.
We will be preparing our classes for VBS probably Sunday afternoon and Monday. VBS will be held Monday through Thursday. The church has various projects for us to work on while we are there as well.
Please pray for the lessons to be beneficial to the 3s/4s we're teaching and that seeds will be planted in their hearts.
Please pray for safety for our group as we are traveling. We will be a long ways from home!
Thank you for praying for us! I look forward to sharing details of our trip with you when we return. God bless you!

Vacation Bible School
We've been going to VBS this week at our church. Yesterday was the last day. Caleb had a wonderful time! I knew he'd have fun because one of his teachers was one of his Wednesday night teachers that he just loves. I really saw how much our little boy is growing up though when I compared this year at VBS to last year.
Last year I had to be careful that he didn't see me. If he saw me he would want me. He was fine when he was with the group, but I tried to stay out of sight. This year he would come to me in the hall or on the playground and say Hi Momma, hug me and continue on his way.
Last year he wanted me to sit by him in the morning assembly singing time. This year I sat with my group, and he was totally fine with that!
A cute thing he did this year was particpate more in the songs. I had told him at breakfast one morning maybe they'd sing "Good Old Noah" where they ask for animals to take on the ark and asked what animal he would take. They did sing that song that morning and Caleb was chosen to pick an animal. He said turtle! The leader had to make up a motion to do with the turtles on the ark.
I am so proud of the big boy we have. He amazes me everyday with his sweet nature, caring ways, and new things he knows. I keep telling him he is still two, I can say that for a few more weeks. :)
