WORDS....

Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts.

Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark.

James 3:5

This verse says volumes and was one of the verses we shared last night as we talked about

watching what we say to each other.

Once the words are out, we cannot take them back, no matter how hard we try.

To help get the point across, each girl was given a small tube of toothpaste and told to squeeze all the paste out.

Then, with the incentive of a $20 bill, they were asked to put all the paste back in the tube.

Two girls got pretty inventive. One opened the bottom with her teeth and tried to get the paste back in, while another did manage to get a lot of hers back in through the top. They were both pretty messy which went to prove that even if we do apologize, we still leave some hurt behind.

Mrs. Wren was pretending to be Mrs. Denise's (who was acting like a two year old) Mom.

She was trying to get ready to go, but Denise was not cooperating.

Mrs. Sharon comes in telling Mrs. Wren to hurry up in a not-so-nice way.

They were running late and she thought Mrs. Wren should have had

Denise ready and was complaining how long it was taking her.

Then it was shown how it should have been handled.

Mrs. Sharon has a teddy bear trying to get Denise to be still

and help Mrs. Wren get ready.

Then the girls acted out different scenarios each relating to something one of them had just experienced. Through the sharing and interacting, the bond these girls have for one another grew even deeper! And they had a lot of fun....as you can see from pictures below.

Taylor & Jerry got married this past weekend and she is

opening a wedding gift she received.

It was Tiffany's birthday today!
