Every
February something special happens at our co-op. It won't make the news, but it is a big day for our group. We have Father's Breakfast. We invite all the dads to come eat breakfast with us and see what we have been learning throughout the year. The little guys sing songs and such. The science classes display any projects or share something they have learned. The literature or writing classes display or put on a short play. It is always fun.
The girls with their special guest: DADDY!
The girls were two of several kids who played piano music while the guys were eating breakfast. Very nice! :)
In the past, Doodle had more things to prepare for Father's Breakfast, but this year, it was Bean's turn. Here she is reading from her report on the Cardinal for Indiana History.
Bean also got to share her science project findings with the group.
For writing class, both girls were displaying their recent works....Bean wrote about her daddy and Doodle had made a memory box that held the information and pictures she gathered after speaking with all four grandparents about different times in history that they each have lived through and experienced. It was sweet to see both displayed.
I am blessed to be married to a man who understands why these days matter to the girls and that while the songs may seem silly or whatever, the heart behind each little thing shared is precious. All in all, the morning went well and truly we love doing this each year. Sure we have to be there at 8:30 instead of 9:45, but the kids are so excited to show their dads what has been happening and what they are working on for class. That gets me to thinking, isn't that how we should react when we get to meet with our Heavenly Father...excited and eager to show what we have been doing?
