HAPPY EASTER

HAPPY EASTER

FROM OUR

KINDERGARTEN EASTER BUNNY


JUST LOVE THE THINGS THE KIDS MAKE AT SCHOOL!!!

Just a couple of thoughts............

"The way we choose to respond when others make mistakes can cause them to feel ashamed or can allow them to remember our kindness and share our stories with future generations. We choose our legacy that gets passed down to others."(from "Welcome the Rain")
_______________________________________________________________________

"Differing views, opinions, and beliefs add texture and color to the world’s tapestry. Choose to stand (or sit!), speak up, and act out for what you believe. Controversial times, while difficult to weather, can change the world."
_______________________________________________________________________

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection."~Thomas Paine

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC!!!

ERIC GOT TO CELEBRATE HIS 12th BIRTHDAY WITH 7 OF HIS GOOD BUDDIES(have to draw the line somewhere), SOME SWIMMING, PIZZA, BASKETBALL, LEMONADE ICE CREAM CAKE, PRESENTS, FAMILY, and GAMES(thank you Grandma & Grandpa). I cannot believe he is 12 already. He is such a nice, thoughtful, & good boy and I appreciate the example he sets for his younger brothers and cousins!We love you Eric and are proud of the choices you are making!

SCARVES.....

A couple of weeks ago our elementary schools had a week off from school. Eric stayed busy making these scarves for his cousins and Aunts. I am not sure how many he has made so far, but A LOT. He is very good at making them and I think he is so thoughtful - he is always thinking of someone new who might like one!

...a great thing

Alma said, "By small and simple things are great things brought to pass" Alma 37:6

"I couldn't possible have understood this when I was young like I do now. When we look back on decades of life we see that the seemingly insignificant things we do over and over actually weave the pattern of our lives. And if those small and simple things are good, we will end up having lived a fulfilling life---and that is a great thing! (Marjorie Pay Hinckley)
