Light of the Village at the Art Museum

What a great time we had today taking the Light of the Village kids to see "Illuminating the Word" art display at the Mobile Museum of Art. The kids, for the most part, really seemed to enjoy the exhibit. We took a DVD out to the school last week which explained what they were seeing. I think this really helped them to enjoy what they were seeing. Afterwards, we brought everyone back to Dayspring so that they could watch some of the inauguration of President Obama. We actully missed the actual inauguration, but we saw some of the interviews that were done afterwards. After we served them lunch, we took them to the Shack where they thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They especially enjoyed the rock climbing wall and playing pool. Everyone was so appreciative and so well behaved. I was so proud of them. These kids have to overcome so many difficult situations in their lives and do not get to enjoy a lot of things. It was such a blessing to be able to share a little of what God has given Dayspring with them.

I will be getting off tomorrow at 12:00 and then be off on Thursday as well. We plan to go to Bladon Springs on Thursday morning and get in some hunting on Thurs., Fri., & Sat. Tomorrow afternoon, we plan to go downtown to get our passports for our cruise that we will be going on in May.

Thanks for taking us to the museum. The kids had so much to say this morning about their day. Thank you again for your kindness and thank you for the kind words about praying4lov. May God bless you both.
