Poor Luke, I feel bad that I wasn't honest w/ him about attending MOPS today, b/c I know he would have felt bad to miss it. I had originally decided to take him out of preschool on MOPS days.. just twice a month.. b/c he REALLY likes MOPS. But the teachers don't seem thrilled w/ this idea and he's learning so much this year I hate for him to miss school. I decided to take him to like every 3rd MOPS date.. that way he won't miss too much but he'll still think he's going. Anyways... Abby was all dressed up for the MOPS parade today and I kinda had to fib to Luke about where she was going. :(

The parade was so cute! of course as always it about brought tears to my eyes to watch my baby parading thru w/ her little outfit. I videod the moment so I have no pictures... hopefully this link will work.....

My heart just swells up to watch it. "Mommy Mommy she said" over and over... "That's my mommy!!" wow, what a wonderful blessing to be someone's mommy! and have them show you off w/ pride as their favorite person in the world. WOW!

When I picked her up she had made this cute little mask. I always appreciate a craft and the work that went in to it. Not to mention getting names on all the crafts and remembering to pass them out to the parents when they come. I'm in charge of crafts Wed night for Adventure Club.. and it's not always easy to come up w/ an idea that the kids can actually do.

all for now, lots to be done!. -Beth

update... tonight we took the kids to trick-or-treating at Barnes and Noble.. here are a few pictures of the fun. Luke is a Lego Knight.. Rich bought this scary costume!! not me!! :)
