My Pram Post
This post is for my friend Cassie. :) Drum roll.......Ta da...... presenting my pram. I've had her for just over 4 years. Please do notice that little Miss Hannah asleep in there. :) The pram has lasted really well, which I'm very happy about. Sometimes I think that it would nice to have an upgrade, but I never seem to get there as I get distracted with buying other things. LOL.

Workboxes
This is what I decided that I would use for workboxes for Chloe and Phebe. It has 5 drawers, so I can put in 5 different activities each week. Or something like that. :)
I went shopping for some more activity things and books today. I got a nice bundle of things. I'll probably do a show and tell of those during the week.
Anyhoooo - just thought that I would show you what I am going to use for the workbox idea, now I'm off to put activities in there. :) School resumes tomorrow for term 3. The count down is on. LOL.

Born Again part 3
Does anyone remember back to the beginning of the month when I made enquiries about being born again?
There were NO replies. So I must summise that NO one wants to know, or that NO one knows how to be born again.
Do you all really want to go to Hell? Do you all really hate Jesus that much? Do any of you hear Him calling? Is there anyone with a burden to repent?
Genesis 1
1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
spirit + water
Isaiah 1:16 (King James Version)
16Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
Matthew 3:16 (King James Version)
16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
water + spirit
Mark 16:16-17 (King James Version)
16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Acts 2:38 (King James Version)
38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
repent + water + spirit
John 3:3-5 (King James Version)
3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
born again - cannot see the kingdom of God
water + spirit - cannot enter the kingdom of God
John 4:1-2 (King James Version)
4When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
John 9:7-11 (King James Version)
7And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
9Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
John 13:8-10 (King James Version)
8Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
9Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
Acts 8:14-17 (King James Version)
14Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
15Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
16(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
17Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
water + spirit
Acts 9:17-18 (King James Version)
17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
spirit + water
Acts 10:47-48 (King James Version)
47Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
I'll post Part 4 next Sabbath.

End of Week
Well, it's Friday again. Here are a few more things that the girls got to this week.
Effective Pre-reading. Looking at different shapes/pictures. I wasn't sure how Chloe would go with this, but she's done super well. I probably could have had her doing this type of thing already. It is still early days, so well see how it goes. What I did was photocopy a couple of pages for trial purposes before I let her do the actual pages in the book. But now that I can see she's definitely ready for it we'll be getting this book out a lot this term.
Here's what our blue wall ended up being. An ocean mural. :)
Couldn't resist buying another book. I've got very nice files of these books that I can print out but I figured that it was about the same price to just buy them already done in a book.
This weeks painting - yellow and green. I gave them some foam stamps to paint and stamp with. Not the most successful thing, but anyway. Lots of fun for them though.
Another library book with a good moral in it as well.

Preschool
Here's some of the things that the girls have done in the last couple of days.
Yesterday I read from this Bible. It has beautiful coloured drawings.
The girls got to do playdough.
I couldn't wait till next week when school resumed so me and Chloe jumped ahead a little and started this book.
Who would of ever thought that this toy would be the most super favourite? For the last week or more now the girls have played with it pretty much every day. They looooove it. I looooooove it too.
A book from the library.
A nice project for the week. When it's finished I'll show you what it is. :)

I know that it looks like I've totally over programmed them, but I don't think I have. I can always pare back if it turns out to be too much. They are quite older boys; 13 and 12 and quite frankly, I'm tired of them finishing school in less than 2 hours each day. I want them to spend at least 4 hours a day, if I can.

More White Goods
Hubby has been wanting to get a super duper extra big freezer for a while now, and the opportunity came up, so he got one.
Birthday Stuff
This is the cheesecake/birthday cake that hubby made me. It was super yummy~!!
This was my couple of days late birthday present from hubby. I print a lot, so it will be nice to bind up the pages ( I normally staple, but binding will probably be more practical.)
Just a photo of Phebes from Sunday. I hope her hair will grow more quickly.
