My Precious Family: Learning the Letter R

Learning the Letter R

We are learning the Letter R and winding down our summer of learning letters.

What a special summer Kaitlyn and I have had learning His word.

Our scripture for Letter R is a Proverb!

I love love love this verse and have since a sweet friend sent it to me in highschool.

I find it harder and harder to not always think about myself...but to think about others!

So onto "living out" our verse.

We thought it would be fun to make a Random Acts of Refreshment List to really learn what it means to "Refresh Others".

Kaitlyn and I came up with some fun ideas!

1. Donate toys/clothes to a Women and Children's home

2. Make a "give jar" and fill with money to give to someone we see in need

3. Take water bottles to bus stops

We found the coolest printables here

4. Tape quarters to the vending machine at the hospital

Little Miss is having her tonsils out next week (boo!!) so we will do this next week

5. Take a gift to our neighbor that had a baby

6. Make buckets of bubbles and leave them at a couple of parks

And finally....

Go see Daddy work on a home for Habitat for Humanity

Wow!! This was so fun and Kaitlyn really caught the "refreshment" bug.

We will finish 2012 summer with Letter S and pick back up with T-Z next summer.

To know Kaitlyn will start kindergarten next fall (really!!! she will be old enough for Kinder!! sniff sniff) with 26 scriptures hidden in her heart thrills this mama's heart!!

I want to be the woman who's husband trusts her, who does him good and not harm all the days of her life, who works with willing hands, who rises before everyone else to take care of needs like clothing and food, a woman who dresses herself with strength physically and spiritually, one who works until the work is done, the one who keeps things steady, who helps the needy, who makes herself appealing for her husband, one who is proud of her husband and lets people know it, who has much dignity, one who overflows with wisdom and has a kind tongue, one who is not lazy, a woman who's children call her blessed and her husband praises her, one who remembers that charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised!(Proverbs 31:10-31)
