Women are like lionesses at the gate of the home. . . . She guards that gate, and things matter to that family if they matter to her. . . . Sisters, you are each like the lioness at the gate. This means that there has to be some prioritizing. I was taught years ago that when our priorities are out of order, we lose power. If we need power and influence to carry out our mission, then our priorities have to be straight.

Friday Field Trip - Butterflies

Bored? Too hot? Looking for something to do this summer?

Get together with your friends and start a "Friday Field Trip" tradition. The possibilities are endless!

Let's just say I was drooling over the little "lesson" the kids participated in before we entered the butterfly farm. I took a million mental notes and stashed them away for a future preschool lesson next year. So the field trip was enriching for me, too!

Rachelle loved the butterflies. Shaelyn was nervous, yet surprisingly a willing participant. Shae's favorite part was being in the spotlight up front during the lesson presentation. Rachelle loved playing in the misting sprinklers.

I loved watching them marvel in these childhood wonders, wishing this could last forever.











Thanks to Nicolle for being inspired to start Friday Field Trips. Stay tuned for our weekly adventures!
