Celebrating Mother's Day is a relatively new concept in our part of the world. But, it has DEFINITELY caught on and the flower shops and bakeries stay very busy. Carrying all of the goodies I received as gifts back home was a bit much. I got flowers from our little national clubhouse, from my daughter, from our big clubhouse, from the orphanage, and from some adopted daughters.
One highlight of Mother's Day in the USA each year to me is Baby Dedication. So, I was pleased to see our big clubhouse carrying on this tradition.
After morning services and SS, we headed off to Harmony Home to love on babies. When we first arrived, most of the younger kids were still sleeping....how precious.
But, when they woke up, they were full of energy. They love it when Jack gets down on the floor with them. They think he is a big mountain, and they crawl all over him.
We are so happy to spend quality time with the older kids each week, telling them HIStory, playing games, making crafts, singing, etc. Ten of the older kids have registered to attend VBS at our big clubhouse in July. What a great opportunity for them to learn HIS truth.
Notice any differences in our version of Monopoly over here? Bubble tea, beef noodles, dumplings, shaved ice treats....yummy.
Keep remembering us on a daily basis. Next week, we'll be doing Mother's Day Holiday Presentations in the public school classrooms using the story of Hannah and Samuel. Happy Mother's Day!
