Presidents Day 2010

This year the boys made fun books to tell us what they would do if they were President. I got this idea from Michael's.com. We also listened to the Presidents Song and Clayton has the first 5 and the last 10 down!! This was such a fun activity to do!

Let's start with Evans! While I did most of the work the fun part was watching his absolute head nods and "yea" to the things I suggested. Then he got to pick and choose from those things. Such a cutie!

I was drawing and writing while holding the baby, so it actually looks like he did the work himself!! Oh well, I do my best.

This phrase was completely his own! I thought this was so funny and somewhat true.

This speaks to the very heart of Evan. Without fail everyday he wakes up asking for something ridiculously sweet. So I'm sure that if he were President someday he would ask for some sort of tax credit for the purchase of candy!! Then he'd have to implement some sort of reimbursement program for Dentist visits.

Now for Mr. C's book!

Of course he would drive a train!! What else would a train loving President do?!

I have my mom to thank for this one. He LOVES those butter and jelly sandwiches! Why not have everyone at least try one?

Ahh, the sweet mind of being 6!!

What a fun morning!

I pray that my boys will grow up to be leaders. Whether they be husband's and fathers that lead their families in faith, or leaders of business, or of this nation! If his spiritual gift is "leadership, let him govern diligently"(Romans 12:8). That you be humble men of God who lead by your example (1 Peter 5:3). To "live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love" (Ephesians 4:1&2).

The last verse is also my prayer for Kenneth and myself. To be humble and gentle, patient and bearing with each other in love.

God Bless
