God Willing What Our First Day Will Look Like

OK, so for the first couple of weeks I'm going to take this litely with the girls. Today especially, since I have an ultrasound appointment in Grand Rapids at 2:00pm. This is what I'm praying/hoping our day will look like.

7am RISE &SHINE (eat breakfast, brush teeth, get dressed, make beds)



8:15 School Bus Ride w/Dahlstroms (Elizabeth made this for her husband to pick the girls up in..SO funny AND SO cute!) The girls are VERY excited for the ride. Kali even made Kendyl a lunch to give her for school today.

8:30 - 9:30 School STARTS with Circle Time (this will be an every morning event to create consistency & bonding time)
  • Prayer & childrens prayer request
  • Bible verse reading Psalm 37: 3-7 & 37:39-40
  • Story to reiterate bible verse (using Keys for Kids Devotionals)
  • Reciting of memory verse proverbs 3:5
  • song (will let the kids get the instruments out to jam along while we sing) He's Got the Whole World in His Hands
  • Action:  If your happy and you know it song with dance
  • Application:  Have the kids pick out a "treasure of thiers" to "TRUST" to the other child for the day to care of. (Reiteration of Trust and trusting in God)
9:30 -10:00 READING TIME (all three get to pick books for mom to read) and than if time they will get to read the books on their own
10:-10:30  Work on ABC with Anyssa while Kali "WRITES Out her alphabet & recites as she does
10:30 - 11:00 MATH  Anyssa 123 recognition; Kali writing days out for her calendar (reiterates # recognition) & it's a PROJECT (smiles)
11:00 Closing Prayer & than outside time (if nice)



And no I didn't forget my little Nia...she, during this time, will be coloring, watching a movie of her choice, playing with playdough or her little people playhouse (which she LOVES to do) 
God willing this will all go smoothly...and if not..tomorrow is a new day!

    Elizabeth..that's a huge compliment..thanks! :) Not taking over circle time for playgroup though...lol sorry. :) You can come over ANY TIME and play instruments..Kali said that was her favorite for the day too. The treasure thing just came to me. I say God directed. :) Is going VERY nicely. The girls seem to be sharing more today...so successful right. :) God does know what He's doing. Got to love it! ;)

    We are going to be out your way tomorrow morning. Do you want us to just drop off those windows? I didn't know if you had a way to haul them or not.

    While checking out your blog, my 7 year old caught a glimpse of the "school bus" car your friend made. Do you have a pattern? He insists we turn our car into a bus!!
