expression is worth a 1,000 words!
Story time for her first time. She was not shy with a room full of 15 or more kids and their parents. Not only was she giving out tons of hugs, but she assumed the position of the lead librarian..lol..Her expression is worth a 1,000 words! Does she not look like she's about to read that book to the class?!!!

My husband & son are having their first day in Israel. They've already eaten their favorite food, visited the Western Wall. visited the Jerusalem Market, and within 24 had already grown such beards that they were nearly unrecognizable!;-) Now I can't wait to hear from them again and to get another update! I am thrilled that they are embarking on this journey together!

curious
Children
Children are very curious and smart,
They are kind with a beautiful heart.
Always exploring and climbing trees,
When kids see ice cream, they just ask please.
Children are honest and speak the truth,
Under the pillow, they put their tooth.
Energy, they never run out,
When playing outside, constantly shout.
Each day with excitement they dream,
Kids know how to work as a team.
The rest of us, should observe and learn,
Kids show compassion and also concern.

Can anyone see me ?
My favourite is hide and seek,
If you're counting, you can't peek.
There are simply so many more,
I really like, keeping score.

A Child's Evening Prayer
A Child's Evening Prayer
~Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Ere on my bed my limbs I lay,
God grant me grace my prayers to say:
O God! preserve my mother dear
In strength and health for many a year;
And, O! preserve my father too,
And may I pay him reverence due;
And may I my best thoughts employ
To be my parents' hope and joy;
And O! preserve my brothers both
From evil doings and from sloth,
And may we always love each other
Our friends, our father, and our mother:
And still, O Lord, to me impart
An innocent and grateful heart,
That after my great sleep I may
Awake to thy eternal day! Amen

Visit my world !
A Child's World
Welcome to my world
Some say it's a simple place
Well that may be so
But at least, there's always a smile on my face
Welcome to my world
It's a world full of joy
It's a world full of love
The world to me now is just one big toy
If ever you're feeling low
If ever you have no place to go
I'll always welcome you to my world
That's something you should know
Welcome to my world
It's a world free of hate
It's a world free of wars
So please don't hesitate
To come and visit my world
Some say it's a simple place
Well that may be so
But at least, there's always a smile on my face
Welcome to my world
It's a world full of joy
It's a world full of love
The world to me now is just one big toy
If ever you're feeling low
If ever you have no place to go
I'll always welcome you to my world
That's something you should know
Welcome to my world
It's a world free of hate
It's a world free of wars
So please don't hesitate
To come and visit my world

You, Lord God, are slow to anger, abounding in love !
| Psalm 85 (86) A poor man's prayer in time of trouble |
|---|
You, Lord God, are slow to anger, abounding in love.
Turn your ear to me, Lord, and hear me,
for I am poor and destitute.
Keep my life safe, for I am faithful;
O God, save your servant, who trusts in you.
Take pity upon me, O Lord,
for I call to you all the day long.
Make your servant’s heart glad,
for to you, O Lord, I have raised it.
For you, Lord, are gentle and mild:
you are kind to all those who call on you.
Let your ears hear my prayer, O Lord!
Turn to the voice of my pleading!
In my time of trouble I call on you,
for you, O Lord, will hear me.
No other god is like you, O Lord,
and nothing compares with your works.
All people – all nations you made –
will come and worship before you;
they will give glory to your name.
For you are great, you work wonders:
you alone are God.
O Lord, teach me your paths,
and I will come to your truth.
Make my heart simple and guileless,
so that it honours your name.
I will proclaim you, Lord my God,
and give you praise with all my heart.
I will give glory to your name for ever,
for your great kindness is upon me:
you have rescued me from the deepest depths.
O God, the proud rise against me,
in the meetings of the powerful they seek my life:
they do not keep you in their sight.
And you, Lord, are a God of compassion,
full of mercies, patient and true.
Look upon me, have mercy upon me,
give your strength and protection to your servant:
your servant, the child of your handmaid.
Give me a sign of your goodness,
let my enemies see it and be confounded;
because you, O Lord, have helped me and given me comfort.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
You, Lord God, are slow to anger, abounding in love.

Little Girls...
grad you by the heart
and cause you to fall
madly in love with
them.
They have a special
twinkle in their eyes
that makes you want to
give them the world.
They are princesses and we are their
devoted servants.
With a smile that can light up the
darkest night they
sing their way into your heart
with kisses and hugs
laughter and tears.
Little girls are precious gifts
that provide our lives with
sunshine and a fist full of dandelions.
Little girls are one of
God's most precious
masterpieces.

Thoughts 10-2-2013
He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all His people, may His God be with him! Let him go up to Jerusalem which is in Judah and rebuild the house of the Lord, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem. Every survivor, at whatever place he may live, let the men of that place support him with silver and gold, with goods and cattle, together with a freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.” (Ezra 1:1-4)
