This week the girls and I picked new Bible verses to memorize. There has been a lot of whining going on around here, so we chose some verses we thought might help to remind each of us to be more Christ-like.
The projects were simple. I just cut out scrap booking paper into pieces and the girls glued it to a piece of white paper. We used old Christmas cards to add artwork featuring Jesus and Mary and then I wrote out the Bible verses in colored markers of their choice. And now we are displaying them and working to memorize them together each day.
| "Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly beloved children, and live a life of love just as Christ loved us." Ephesians 5:1-2 |
"Do everything without complaining or arguing so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God"
Philippians 2:14-15
Check out some of our other fun Scripture projects in previous posts Scripture gifts for your Children and More Scripture Gifts for your Children (such creative titles, I know. :)
This week, I have been playing around a lot with navy and green combinations. I wore the cardi with the belt over top for Mass, with the sweater loose at home afterwards, and without the sweater when the sun began really shining as I made blueberry muffins for brunch.
The look:
Green cardi: Old Navy
Navy and White polka dot dress: Ross
Chunky white belt: hand-me-down
White sandal heels: Target (Ooooold!!)
Earrings: Color Pop from Jacie's Premier Designs
The girls received a box in the mail from some friends at our old parish in Northern California with some very spring-y clothing items. Of course they were dying to wear them this week, and I wasn't going to argue. There is no such thing as winter here- so the girls wore white sweaters on the way to Mass and by the time we came home, most of them had already peeled off the sweater layer. Adorable, right?
