Some beautiful days this past week. We have been enjoying drawing observations of God's nature in our Science Journals. These journals will come home at the end of the school year for your enjoyment!

Happy Birthday to Timmy who turned 6 on April 15. I hope tax day never overshadows Timmy's birthday! I hope each of you got Timmy's invitation to his party. If you didn't, give me a call and I'll connect you with his family!

Our April store is in full swing. Most of the children spent their year-long savings the first week of the store being open. Now they are living from day to day. Most children can earn from 3 to 5 dollars per day if they work hard and are responsible. But 3 to 5 dollars buys very little in the Kindergarten Store. Mackenzie had a revelation that she shared with the class today. She said, "I can buy bigger things if I save my money!" Thanks to her dad for helping her think that one through! Now several children are saving their money! What may seem like simple common sense to us is often rocket science to a kindergarten student!

Week of Prayer is coming up next week. The students at TCJA will be putting on each day's program. Kindergarten will be leading the singing on Wednesday, April 21. They will be singing at about 8:35 AM.

Quilt update - We will be cutting out squares and designing our kindergarten quilt this Friday. Thanks for all the scraps of fabric you shared this week. We will be sewing the quilt together next week. It will be fun to be involved in the process of making the quilt.

Memory Verse: "Oh come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the Lord, our maker. Psalm 95:6

Train books - 566 and counting daily. Almost around the room for the second time!

Date to Remember: April 26, 7:00 PM - Constituency Meeting here at TCJA.
