Bible Heros


Tomorrow the kids have AWANA at the Grace Baptist Church. Tomorrow the kids are suppose to dress as their favorite Bible Hero. My boys are just starting to learn the characters in the Bible. Philip knows much more of the Bible then Thomas. I don't think either one of them would say they have a Bible Hero (yet). To be honest, I make them go to church. They don't believe in God yet. I do have hope. I didn't accept Christ as my savior until I was 12 years old. So today I just assigned them Hero's. Thomas is going to dress as Joseph in his multi colored coat, and Philip will go as Jesus. Why these characters? Because the costumes where easy to make! They also need to know who they are dressed like. I spent time with them teaching them something about Joseph and his 11 brothers, and Jesus. I also helped them learn their Bible memory verses. Thomas was so proud. I think he really likes AWANA but is ashamed to go because he never knows his verse. Sarah had an angels costume, so I'm going to dress her in that. I once remember walking through the old town of Heidelberg at Christmas time. There were allot of cute angels figures in the shop windows. I said very firmly to Jessica angels do not really look like that. They are heavenly warriors, very powerful and strong. I am wondering if I have a Bible Hero. I love Paul. How would you dress as Paul? Maybe wear very heavey glasses because he could not see well? Do you have a Bible Hero?

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi...

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to h...
