We are so proud to be an American, and live in the USA! Those are the lyrics to one of the songs to be performed by our precious kiddos at the Patriotism Day program. By this program, we are planting a seed in each little one's minds, and hopefully, their parents, too,
that we SHOULD BE AND ARE PROUD to have the many freedoms we do in this country. The word "freedom" is difficult to explain to a child, but since every thing we do is intentionally age appropriate, we simply tell them that it means we are very blessed to "get to choose."
We get to choose which church to worship God in. We get to choose which school we want to learn in. We get to choose where we want to live, and how we want to live. We get to choose which friends we cherish. We have so many choices!
We, as a staff, choose to teach the children that it is important to be grateful to people who do things that allow us to continue to have the right to "choose"!!
Weekly Prayer....Jesus, help us to choose You first and always. Through Your example, You show us the way to live our lives with dignity and respect for others. Help us to remain humble and grateful for what we have. Amen.
