After our late night Monday with the fireworks, we were up bright and early Tuesday morning for our churches Vacation Bible School. Our church is pretty small, and last year we didn't even have a VBS because we were afraid we wouldn't have enough kids. This year we had about 140 kids 2 years old through 4th grade and the theme was Pandamania. As a comparison, one of my friends was sending her children to the very large Second Baptist Church and they had over 2,000 children registered!
Brenna had a fantastic time! I was alittle nervous about it since this was her first "school" type experience. I tried to explain it to her that it would be different from regular church. As we were driving up the first day she said "But Mama, this is regular church!" She loved every minute of it, and I really enjoyed things too. I lead the Bible Adventures for the preschoolers and while it was a blessing to be so active with the kids for the week, a week was plenty! I was worn out!
The first day after Brenna had been with her Bamboo Crew, she ran up to me in the general session and said "Look Mama, I have my very own name tag. It says Brenna, B-R-E-N-N-A!" I said, "That's great! Look, I have a name tag too!" Her response "But Mama, you got the wrong one! That's not your name! It doesn't say M-A-M-A!"
If you look close, you can see Brenna in pink dancing with her friends in the aisle in the top left hand row. Here's a close-up
We had a bunch of happy and tired preschoolers by the end of the week.
