Do You Feel Lucky?

Happy Saint Patrick's Day to all you Patrick's and Irish and non-Irish people.
I like St. Patrick's Day. No, not because of the green beer, but because it's another day to celebrate. We love to celebrate! And that's today's tip.
Tip #17:
Celebrate!!!!!! Kids love to celebrate and have fun. So do it along with them. Chinese New year- Break out the chop sticks and teach them about God's love for all people. Presidents Day- Teach them to pray for our leaders. July 4th- Teach them that God gave us a country that's it's OK to pray to God in public. Read them the story of Daniel and the lions den (Daniel 6). Earth Day- Read the creation story and teach them about how God gave us the whole earth to take care of.
You get the idea.
Today we are having Pesto Pasta-It's green and we are talking about how God gave us colors to enjoy.

Wonderful ideas! I'm storing them up for next year, when Eli can do more than kick his legs and say 'Goo!'. Seriously, I'm loving this stage and smile like a fool whenever I'm with him.
