Super Hero Run!

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!


Today was the Fantastic 5K run/walk and kids races.  It was a themed event- can you guess?  Superheroes!  :) 

 I had an awesome vision in my head of what the hubby and I could go as but sadly my husband was out of town on work meetings and the cost was $25 per person.  A bit to high for our budget.  The kids run was free so that was a blessing.  

 My  kids have had these super hero costumes since they were clearanced off last year after Halloween. Happily they are getting great use out of them.  My daughter had to wear hers for an AWANA Night last spring.  I also had the kids pictures taken in them for a birthday present for the hubby.  :) 

 I had fun cheering on my lil loves!  I had Selah start when they did the count down and then put Titus down to try to chase her.  :)  He did.  He fell behind but he had fun.  They each got a blue ribbon and felt accomplished.  :)  

 They also won runner up in the costume contest! :)  I have lots of ideas for next year and Lord willing we will be able to participate as a family.  :)

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.

After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
