COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #53

I'm all confused Dr. Bob. Are you saying that if I had the Spirit in me my closets would be clean already?

I printed out those paper dolls for the girls and they are STILL playing with them! The peace. The quietness. WOW! Diane, did I ever tell you you're my hero????

See, I mowed the lawn 3 times in the past few weeks. I was WONDERING why I didn't feel blessed afterwards! All that old English messed me up. I was reaping when I should have been sewing.
Thank you for your ever present guidance in such situations Doc!

Sometimes we feel like we are the only ones who have it so rough. I just, in the last hours, have talked to several people who are in the exact situation as us..... These verses just speak so loudly to me!

2 Corinthians 4:8 We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed and broken. We are perplexed, but we don't give up and quit. 9 We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day! We had a nice time at VBS and then went swimming. We just got in. It started raining but also the bugs were BAD!

Today was the last day of our Thursday Kids Klub for the summer, now we begin work for our Kids Klub Kamp (VBS) in July.

Off to bed soon, see you all tomorrow.

 

That would be true ..... Might have a lot of unwanted things -nod nod-

 

And the girls continue to play with the paper dolls...they got upset when I made them take a break to go play with a friend.

Gina, I made a little Japanese house with Japanese children and put them in one section of my room. The BOYS were fighting over them and wanting more dolls!

You can print out different style clothes and it's like a brand new toy.... since the olympic clothes send their little minds one way and the Pilgrim clothing or Bible clothing.....

Diane

 

OK i've bugged everyone enough for a while. you all get a 2 hour break from me rest while you can cause I WILL BE BACK -giggles-



-packs up the youngins and heads to VBS-

make that three

 

I saw that Diane! We already went back to the library once for more dolls print outs for the different outfits.
I honestly can't remember when I've seen them this occupied with one thing for this long. We've had paper dolls before, but they were younger then and there wasn't that many choices of change, and I was more picky about being careful with them since I paid a lot of money for the book. (I had it imported from Asia)
Gina

 

I print the clothes out on colored paper for the younger children at church, cut them out ahead of time and then they just glue and play. I can imagine your girls even using scraps of material to make dresses! Isn't it fun?!!!

I'm so glad you're enjoying it!
Diane

 

Good evening all!

Hope we're all having fun - playing with dolls.

I printed one out - took three pieces of paper - with page 1 and 3 not worth much. Anyone else have that problem?

 

No, all you have to do is tell the printer to only copy page one through one, instead of letting it go ahead and print "all". All only shows as one page on this site, but you can never trust that to be accurate!

I had them put them away in little baggies and go to bed. Tomorrow I'll tell them about the house idea, that aughta keep 'em busy for another day!

Gina

 

Morning all..... well I lost it all last night and feel even worse this morning. Must be all the rushing around but I'm very 'anxious' this morning. PTL... I DID sleep tho!

With the paper dolls... I always click ONCE on the page before telling it to print and then tell it to print only page one because their header will show up on page 2. I've not ever had 3 pages tho.

Here's a page for you, builder Dan!

Final day of VBS and I'm praying my hormones level out, my anxiety lessens and that I can be salt and light to these little ones because many are not from town or our church and I many never see them again.

Diane

I went to a neighbour's house (we don't have cable) and was able to watch the funeral, my heart was stirred - and I wept. Because even when the Gipper was ill, I knew he was there and that meant something. Now he is well and truly gone, and with him I fear, a part of our greatness.
