Around the Creek - Creek Kids Version

November! I can't believe it's here already! Seems like yesterday we were ringing in the new year and now, here we are thinking about turkey and dressing once again.

November happens to be one of my favorite months. I have many wonderful memories of all my family sitting around the table eating together, but most of all I like to sit at my computer, with one of my favorite worship songs playing and type out a list of all the things I have to be thankful for. There have been times in my life that I have thought that I had nothing to be thankful for, but as I sat down and began to compile my list I found that I had more than I realized.

As christian parents it is our responsibility to cultivate character traits in our children like thankfulness. One of the best ways to do this is to just simply walk it out in front them. When something good takes place in our lives, we need to thank God out loud. Our kids need to see us modeling our appreciation to God, our families, friends, and even those we work with. Another very practical way is to pull out the crayons and pencils and let them draw or write on paper what they are thankful for.

This month take a day to write down all the many things you are thankful for, give God the praise and the honor for all that He has done, and cultivate an atmosphere of thankfulness in your home, because He is good, He really is!

Pre-School
Our focus this month is God made me and this week Jesus teaches us not to worry. If God will take care of the birds and flowers, He will surely take care of His people.
