God made me!

It brings me great joy to begin each school year to do a unit with each child, talking about what exceptional people they are and how God has made each of them just exactly right. Special, unique, wonderful children.

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13,14

Here are a few of the art projects Henry has been doing during this unit:

I love to "interview" the kids every 3 or 4 months. It's fun to see how their answers change.
