Cutest Kids, EVER!!!

We had a great first day of Kindergarten at Bethlehem Lutheran!  Check it out.  Are they the cutest kids (plus older kid, Miss Smith) EVER, or what??? Love, Love, Love!!  It's going to be a great year!

Miss Smith is such a welcome addition to our classroom!  We are blessed to have her as our student teacher this year, AND she is the "artist in residence" of this cute sign, too!!  

The Night Before Kindergarten

Twas the night before Kindergarten, 

and inside her house, 

the teacher was working as quiet as a mouse.  

The plan books were laid, 

all neat and written out, 

inside of her book bag, 

with purple pens, no doubt.  

Her family was nestled, 

all snug in their beds, 

while visions of 5-year-olds danced in her head....

Ok, I think I am ready, but there is never any sleep on the night before the First Day of School!  Praying for a peaceful first day, full of love and laughter with my Kinder Friends and their families.

Please check out our blog throughout the year, we have many exciting things planned for the 2016-2017 Kindergarten year!

God's Blessings,

Mrs. Wilson

...And I heard her exclaim as she turned off the light,

"May our school days be productive, 

and our futures be bright!"

A Blessed Day!

Today we had a very special day in Kindergarten.  We were able to witness the baptism of one of our Kinder Friends during our Wednesday chapel service!  It was a beautiful service, full of messages of "keeping the faith" and "the power of God is great!"  We watched in awe as Pastor Korte used water and God's Word to bring another child into God's Holy Family.  What a great memory, for our newly baptized friend and his family and sponsors, AND for the Bethlehem Kindergarten class of 2016!

The Wedding of Q and U

We had such a good time making it "official" with the Letters Q and U this week!  They're always together, so we decided it was time that they tied the knot.  I mean, the only time I've seen them apart is the time Q was in IRAQ!  LOL!

Here are the "professional" photographs of our celebration of love.  The girls dressed as Queens and the boys dressed as Quarterbacks.  Enjoy!

 Setting the scene

 The Quarter Girl - she dropped quarters instead of rose petals.

Helping the couple down the aisle.

 Here comes the bride (and groom.)

 The ceremony was well attended!  See the "Shusher."  She kept everyone QUIET.  

 Mrs. Gallegos was the officiant.

 Blowing bubbles

 They said, "I do!"

 The first kiss, of course.

 Cake and punch were served to the guests.

 The vowels were in attendance to support their friend, "U."

 This queen is looking quite cute!

 Another lovely queen.

 And another...

Who loves cake?  ME!!! 

 Handsome quarterbacks enjoying their cake.

 This vowel was sad when it was all over.

Then, they were off on their honeymoon to Quebec!

Down on the Farm!

We spent a great morning at LeCronier's Baby Acres farm this week.  The rain held off, and we were able to take a hay ride through the fields, meet and hold several brand new animal babies, and then feed them from our own hands!  It was a great experience for everyone, and we are still talking about it!
