Beauty and the Beast-Date with my Daughter

I look at this picture and think, "Wow, we sure do look a lot alike!"   Then I sit back and think, "I sure hope she remembers the fun we had on this date."   

I truly have a deep love for theater!  I was involved in drama in high school and even though I am not on a stage in the present moments the opportunities I had in High School has prepared me for the many other speaking arrangements such as teaching and preaching! 

This production of "Beauty and the Beast" left us giggling and enjoying our time out.   My favorite character in the show was Lumiere and my daughter liked the Mad'em - the Duster.   Lumiere was impressive with his accent- he really sounded natural with it!  He also made me laugh the most!  I wonder why my daughter liked the Duster lady and I think it boils down to she was very flirtatious and also had a fun accent.  

During intermission the show was selling Icee's in these fun Chalice glasses so of course we had to buy them so she could take a keepsake home and have special drinks in them!     



When was the last time you took your kids out on a date?   Spend time with them and create life long memories!

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

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.
