Alyssa's project~

They are off and running.... down the road on our golf cart.... talking and sharing with the few neighbors we have on our road (once a dirt road)....

Alyssa sharing the story of the "Children of the World" and how she is trying to help our church raise money to dig a well. She remembers that 6,000 children die each day from unsafe drinking water.... She remembers the children she met.... she remembers their singing, their gratitude, their faces.

They come running back into the house.... sharing what each neighbor shared... and with delight! Off they go again .... singing "For the Children of the World... every single little boy and girl.... red or yellow, black or white.... they are precious in the Father's sight..." She gives them a bookmark that my daughter in law, Amber helped us make.

They count the money.... they bubble over as they see it increasing....

Isn't this school too?

We haven't finished our phonics (with the boys), or her reading... and our read alouds? We haven't read "Hinds Feet on High Places." We haven't studied our Awana verses.....

sometimes *book* work is not all that LIFE is about.
