Thankful



During Sunday School this past Sunday I taught 2's. I was filling in on an off Sunday for Nora, so I was doing her craft and may I just say it was SO good!!!

Anyhow, they made turkeys with "I am thankful for..." written on the feathers. The answers were FUNNY! One little boy's answer was, "I can't think of anything right yet"

Em's reads:
I am thankful for: my dolls, the princesses at the castle, Camden.

Cam picked up her turkey after church and read it. When he got to his name I thought he'd burst! "MOM, Emmy put ME DOWN!!! It say's that she's thankful for ME!!!"

Now, I realize that later this may not be the overwhelming sentiment between the two of them, but oh it was beautiful!

They love each other so much and I'm so glad that they appreciate one another. It is a beautiful thing.

So, thank you to Nora...a 2 year old craft that brought tears to my eyes and a HUGE grin to Cam!

Awwww! It's so nice when they show love for each other and it's not forced by the parent :). I'm so glad it worked out and it's wonderful to teach them gratefulness at this age.

ps. I love that Emery's red gobbler thingy looks like red snot coming out of the turkey's nose!!!
