Today I could post about my awful morning... Lucas throwing drill bits into my exhaust pipe, putting a screw in an electrical outlet, dumping an ENTIRE bottle of baby powder upstairs... truly the list could go on.
Instead I am going to post about FHE. We have been struggling in these parts with FHE. We have it every week, but it just isn't that successful. I want Lucas to sit still while we have a lesson. I want him to fold his arms and sing songs. Yesterday as I thought about our lesson, I decided obviously I was doing something wrong. So I pulled out all my old nursery gear and started preparing. I made 11 lesson folders that can be used over the next 3 months. I cut, colored, pasted and laminated. Then I velcroed them to their own individual folder so we don't lose them, and labeled accordingly.
Last night we had the "Jesus Loves Me" Lesson and I am happy to report it went way better than expected. Lucas interacted, pointed, played the matching game... I was shocked. I am so glad it went well otherwise the fact that I ignored all household duties yesterday while I crafted would have been a waste!
I am actually looking forward to FHE next week! My hope is that by the time this next new baby is 18 months Lucas will be a perfect example of how to act during FHE! :)

I was just telling Christian about DEJ and he was like, "You know our girls would cry for hours after we scared them like that, right?"
Geez, how many more years am I gonna have to wait? Can I play with you guys and Lucas?
