VBS

This week we had vacation Bible school at church. We were on a "High Seas Expedition" all week. We had 33 4 & 5 year olds on Monday and the rest of the week we had 35 or 36 each day. That is the most kids in this age group we have ever had. This year was Keagan's first year to get to go to vbs. I was worried about how he would do because he would be in the 4 and 5 year old group that I was in charge of. I talked to about what he would get to do each day and he seemed really excited. On Monday he did great when we went to the sanctuary and sang. Then we went back to our room for the Bible story. After the story we divided into three groups. Keagan's group went with me first to Chadder's Theatre. When it was time for his group to go to games, he started to cry and say he wanted to stay with me. Mrs. Kinann got him and he was fine. I was not worried too much about him wanting to stay with me the whole time, I was more worried about how he would behave. The rest of the week he did very well-he just had to know where I was and what I was doing. I didn't get very many pictures. I couldn't leave my group of kids and take his picture doing different things, but I got a few. As you look at the pictures, see if you see notice anything common in most of the pictures???

On Thursday, the kids made a picture frame. I took all of their pictures and printed them.

Keagan and Audrey in "big church" getting ready to sing.

Keagan didn't get too much into singing and dancing. He like to watch the video. He picked up more of the songs than I thought. When he doesn't think anyone is listening or watching he would sing along.

Did you notice a little girl in almost every picture with Keagan? That is Audrey. She use to stay at Mrs. Cheryl's with Keagan and they were best buddies. Monday morning I was looking at the list of names of the kids who had pre-registered and saw her name. Keagan was so excited when she got there. I think Audrey had mutual feelings. Keagan could not keep his hands off of her. When we would have the Bible story, he would sit beside her and put his arm around her. When we went each day to sing in the sanctuary, he had to make sure he was sitting by her. One day at snack, Audrey had to use the restroom, so after she got up Keagan spread out his legs so no one would sit in her spot. Wednesday-Friday her cousin was there. On Wednesday during the Bible story Keagan of course had his arm on Audrey and her cousin scooted over by them and was trying to put his arm around her too. Keagan didn't like that! Mrs. Kinann had to tell Keagan he has to share Audrey. They were both very cute. I was very glad she was there and they got to play with each other again. I am hoping Audrey will go to pre-k and they will get to be in the same class.
