My Girl Jennifer .......... She always surprises me. She is shy and doesn't always say a lot unless she knows you. She is in First grade and is starting to open up. Well her share day or better know as Show N Tell Day is Monday. Last week it slipped my mind but Jennifer didn't care that we forgot. So on Sunday when I was getting clothes ready for school on Monday. I told her you need to find something for Share on Monday. Well it didn't take her long. You won't believe what she picked .........
A BIBLE.
I told her well that's a good thing. I asked what she was going to say. She told me she would tell the class it is God's word and it's a plan book for your life. I told her I'm not sure what kind of questions the kids will ask but I'm sure the teachers will help you. She said it's ok Mom , I know what to do. I emailed her teachers and let them know. I didn't mind she took it but wasn't sure how the school would feel with the way things are nowadays.
Well when I went to pick them up today I asked Jennifer how her day went and she said totally cool. Everyone liked my Bible. She said it will prolly make you sad but there was a few kids that never seen one before. She said I'm gonna pray extra hard for them tonight that maybe soon they can get a Bible too.
Her teachers said they have had children bring lots of different things but can't remember someone bringing a Bible. They are not supposed to bring toys something that has special meaning or something you can learn something from. I was very proud of her. I know God was smilin down today too.
This hectic thing we call life.

what an aewesome testimony Jennifer is already building!
That is beautiful! I know you must be so proud of Jennifer :)
I think that is so awesome that she took a Bible!!!!
what a great thing to bring in for Share Day!! I think it was neat Jennifer thought about it and took the Bible in to share with her classmates. Makes you wonder if anyone in her class went home and asked their parents if they had a Bible in their home.....who knows what good this will come to; seeds could have been planted, know what I mean??
betty
she is on good track!
That is precious. I wish I had known God like that when I was her age.
