School Daze

Emma has been a busy little bee lately! Especially with all the activities at school. We had a lot of fun at her last field trip to the Children's Discovery Museum a few weeks ago. It was nice to see her interact with all her school buddies. They are a really sweet bunch of kids and very well behaved. I was a driver and having three girls in the backseat wasn't any louder than one-which says alot about Emma's volume!

Yesterday at Chapel, Emma's class did a little program where they dressed up as bees and encouraged everyone to "Bee Cheerful, Bee Positive, Bee Helpful, Bee Prayerful, and Bee Forgiving". It was super cute and Emma even got a little solo part! The other mom's and I joked that the three girls got the solo parts because they are probably the loudest in the class! We are working really hard on being all of these things at home so this was a very timely lesson. We are especially working on being positive and helpful and only saying nice things. It is definitely a work in progress! My faves the Avett Brother's say it best, I don't need those words to say what I mean. Correction, this says it best:
Watch the way you talk. Let nothing foul or dirty come out of your mouth. Say only what helps, each word a gift. Ephesians 4:29
We are going to make Em's Valentine's and decorate a box to take to school tonight. We haven't had a chance to do crafty stuff together lately so I am excited to see what we come up with!
I have been working in my scraproom a little more often these days. Making cards mostly since we have tons of Birthday's coming up.
I have had a few requests to see my scraproom so I will try to get pictures today after I clean it. ;)
