Lead Me, Guide Me, Walk Beside Me Artwork


Photobucket

There is a children's song in our church called "I Am A Child Of God."

The chorus says:

Lead Me,
Guide Me,
Walk Beside Me,
Help me find the way.
Teach me all that I must do,
To live with Him someday.

You can listen to the amazing song here.
Can't promise you won't cry.
It's beautiful.
And for everyone.

So when trying to come up with an idea for some beautiful, timeless and uplifting artwork for my music room, I knew I wanted to do something with my children, and something with those lyrics.

50 100th Day Of School Project Ideas

Photobucket

My Kindergardener recently had her 100th day of school.
To celebrate being 100 days smarter her teacher asked that they create, on poster board, a picture using 100 items and to be creative.
Well, I was kinda tired that day so I decided to just ask my friend the Google.

Sadly didn't find much.

*shake of head*

That won't do.

Travel Memories: Keychain Ornaments

Photobucket

The Mr. and I love to travel.

Each place we go we try to collect memorabilia.

We collect bells for Eden, thimbles for Ada, and postcards and keychains for Connor.

While waiting in the excruciating lines to see the Sistine Chapel on our last trip, we had the idea to collect keychains for ourselves, the prettiest ones we could find, and use them as Christmas tree ornaments.
