Preschool Minds
D coaches L and El's soccer team. They are preschoolers with little or no experience with soccer, which is good because we don't know anything either. The league we participate in is called Upwards Soccer and is through our church. During halftime, the coach has devotionals with the kids and teaches them a memory verse. This week's verse was about God providing for our needs. Here's the conversation that ensued.

D: All of us have needs. Needs are things we can't live without. God provides for our needs. Can you think of a need you have?

S: Chairs. Yeah, we need chairs.

D: Okay, S, we need chairs. Can anyone think of something else we need?

T: Broccoli.

D: Yes, broccoli helps us to grow strong. God provides for our needs. Can you think of something else God provides?

T: God provides carrots. (Obviously his family encourages healthy eating.)

L: God loves us.

El: God cares for us.

D: Okay. Well, let's say our Bible verse(simplified for the age group). "God gives us what we need." Can you say it, H?

H: "God gives us what we need."

El: "God gives us what we need."

L: "God gives us what we need."

T: "God gives us what we need."

S: "God gives us our knees."

    Well, I must say that both are true! And some of us could use another set.

    That is too funny! One of the best gifts I ever received was a Kidspirational Journal just for recording little moments like this from my kids. Every time I look at it, I laugh all over again. Thanks for sharing.

    Gotta love the minds and words of kids!

    I like the idea of Jessy's Kidspirational Journal... looking back is so much fun!

    Actually, my mom does that for us. She has journals for all of her grandkids and as we tell her stories, she records them in their books. I truly appreciate that! Way to go Mom and Jessy!

    Well, he does give us our knees and we do need those!

    p.s. I have packages all packed and ready for you, but I keep forgetting to bring your address to work so I can ship them out. I need to tie a string around my finger or something.
