Fall Celebration at Day Care

Yesterday I had the opportunity to spend the day with Thomas at Pre-School and participate in their fall celebration. This is a day I always look forward to. And each year it just gets better and better, if that's even possible!

They started the day with worship time as they do every day. Ms. Stephanie, the director, leads this part of the day. They start with praise and worship music which they all sing along to. Its the most precious thing ever to hear those sweet little voices singing about Jesus. She reads from the bible and shares verses and stories with them. They talk about prayer requests and what they are thankful for and have the opportunity to share whats on their hearts. The kids are very engaged and love this time. I was so thankful to be able to share in this wonderful part of the day with them.

This is Ms. Stephanie as she shares with the children about the importance of letting their light shine for Jesus.

They also recite the pledge to the Bible and the pledge of allegiance to the flag.

They are singing praise & worship songs here.

This one of Thomas' best friends... M'lynn (he calls her Lennie)

They are singing a song that they sing every day. A couple of the lines in the song go like this...

If you don't read your Bible and Pray everyday then you'll shrink, shrink, shrink...

So read your Bible and Pray everyday so you'll grow, grow, grow...

and as you can see in this picture they singing the part about shrinking right here...

Here they are coming from the little hayride they had...

How many Pumpkins tall are you??

Everytime I think about Thomas' pre-school I am overcome with joy. I just don't have the words to express how thankful I am for the center and for the amazing teachers.
