What a wonderful week we have had...and it's not over yet. This is the first year that we have really taken the time to be in the Word as a family and really reflect on what this week is all about. Thanks to the wealth of ideas posted by Monica and ideas in Homespun Memories for the Heart it has been an exciting week in which we have learned so much! So here is our week so far...
Webb cut palm branches and we read from our Read and Learn Bible. Then we laid our jackets and blankets down on the floor and waved our palm branches shouting "HOSANNA!" The girls had a lot of fun with it. We talked about how excited we would be if Jesus had walked in and walked across the path that we made for him.
"Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!"
John 12:13

"Then He poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples feet
and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded."
John 13:5
"If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet,
you also ought to wash one another's feet.
For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you"
John 13:14-15
Day 2: We washed each others feet! I actually enjoyed it and know that Cat and Sam had fun (Becca wasn't feeling well, but did want her feet washed). Webb even let me use my "smelly" sugar scrub on his feet! They had way too much fun with my feet...very ticklish feet and they all know it.
I will try to post the rest tomorrow, but still need to finish my Easter dress, so we will see. But, will get it up. How are you spending your week?
