I was blessed by my children today. Khloe-Ann has been sick over the last few days with a high fever. I have begun to start to worry. I have been giving her tylenol/motrin around the clock. My daughters said to me this afternoon, lets annoint her with oil and pray for healing mom and pray for God to heal her body. I was struck with the fact that I had not done this or even thought of this. So many times we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and kids and forget the important things like praying for our children's healing. This should be my first response. I thank the Lord that I have these wonderful daughters to teach me , humble me and remind me ultimately who is our Rock, our Healer!
Fun way to teach about Henry VIII
Here is a fun way to teach elementary children about King Henry. I downloaded and laminated the faces of King Henry's 6 wives and then the children in our homeschool co-op elementry history class acted out the song "Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced beheaded, survived." We had a blast, I was rolling on the floor laughing as the kids acted out the wives it was a blast. Try it with the kids. Make sure to give them some fun details on each of the wives. Heres a good wedsite for informations- englishhistory.net/tudor/monarch. Have fun!
