LOVE BUGS

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY from these two cute little LOVE BUGS!

The girls each had fun at their classroom parties, Abigail even came home with a helium balloon from a treasure hunt! Abigail had to write her name on 20 valentines, and Lydia had to write to and froms on 23 valentines. 

We did something new this year for the 14 days leading up to Valentine's Day. It is an idea I found on Pinterest (http://www.notconsumed.com/14-days-gods-love) 

So each night I hid a heart for the girls to find in the morning (reminiscent of moving that elf around at Christmastime, but this time I could say I was doing it). When they found it, we looked up and read the corresponding Bible verse, and then clipped it to a red ribbon. I don't read to them from the Bible enough, so this was a fun way to do it! This is also the simple kind of thing that really gets Lydia jumping out of bed in the morning!

God's love is for everyone.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
