Time to Worship

So the last couple of days, I have been able to sneak some time to do some things that bring me great enjoyment.  Time to be myself.  Time to spend using the gifts and talents that God has given me.  Time to worship Him.  Here is some of the things that I have been working on...the first group of pictures are of some busy boxes that I made for a friend who just had her third baby.  I had some boxed activities for the Hootie Hoos that I would pull out when I was nursing. I would also use them when the two older Hootie Hoos stopped taking naps and moved to quiet times.  A couple of the ideas I got from scrolling through Pinterest. 

I made some "parking spaces" to park the cars as the boys work on shapes, colors, letters and numbers

I made four different  themed bags (family, transportation, fall, farm).  The boys need to clip to spell the words

A bag of crayons and stickers and a pad to be creative

Some puzzles to put together

Then I spent some time making a review poster called "Characteristics of Creation."  We have been reading "My Big Book of 5 Minute Devotions--Celebrating God's World" by Pamela Kennedy with Douglas Kennedy.  We got this book when we ordered the first grade curriculum from My Father's World. I made the posters to remind the Hootie Hoos of the characteristics we can learn from God's wonderful creations.  If you are looking for a family devotional to do with your child(ren), I would recommend getting this. 

This is the book

 

"Characteristics in Creation"

I am thankful for this little bit of time to just be me...to spend some time worshiping the One who created me.
