Valentine's Tea

Abby and some of her classmates!

Singing!

Each 1st grader was asked to invite a friend or family member that had been or is a soldier. We have a friend, Craig, who is pictured here with Abby that was her guest for the tea. Abby was so glad that he was able to take off work to enjoy the program they had worked so hard on.


Here is Kirin and Abby in front of the big American Flag that the 1st graders had made with their own handprints. As you can see, it was enormous! Abby's handprints are some of the hands on the bottom 3 stripes.

The Tea was a huge success. Being a room mom, there was alot that goes into throwing a wonderful party. We had more then enough help and it went flawlessly. God worked in that room, I could feel it. The kids presented the gospel through their songs and enthusiasm. I am so thankful that Abby is able to express so freely her relationship with God at school. What a blessing!

I HAVE to have real pictures of this, okay? What a great program those kids must have done. I know one guy who felt pretty good about it all. :)

I showed Craig his picture with Abby and he just LOVED looking at it. He was truly happy to be there for her.

Abby looks like she's ready to try out for American Idol. That flag is beautiful.

Abby - you are getting SO grown up! I'd better not blink or you'll be in high school. :)
