My broken heart

Today while we were away at a wedding banquet, Caleb fell and damaged his tooth. One of his front tooth got pushed back into the gum as a result of the fall. We were really concerned. He seems fine the next day, but he just would not bite with his front teeth. We took him to the dentist and he said to just watch to see if the gum continue to be red and if it still hurts. I guess there is nothing he can do. I might just take Caleb to get a second opinion later.

My heart is so broken to see him hurt. His teeth looked so great and he always smile to display them. Now there is a hole in the front.

Happy Hallow Park & Zoo

Caleb is rather shy and at the beginning of the school year, I noticed that he doesn't play and actively engage with other kids. He would rather play by himself. I got concerned and made more opportunities to for Caleb to play with his school friends. We went over to a friend's house and we hosted a playdate for his friends. I lifted him up in prayers.

Caleb's school closed on the 23rd of May So I scheduled a trip to Happy Hallow with three other moms in Caleb's class. I also brought Joshie with me. I was so excited to see that Caleb joined the crowd and ran around with his friends. He even went on rides with his friends without me. I was so surprised because he usually wants me to ride with him. Praise the Lord for answered prayers.

Family Devotions

We started doing family devotions with the kids in January of this year using this Bible. We love it. It's more a devotional for preschoolers than a Bible. It has colorful pages, introduction to the story with real example, a bible verse that's applicable to the story, and a short prayer for every story. I would say this book has about 60 devotionals. I think this is a good book to use if someone is looking to start family devo with a toddler or preschooler.

Caleb loved it because he loves to read and we also do fun activities afterward to illustrate the lesson further. Joshie, however, can't sit still long enough for it. But he also loves playing the games that we make up. I got this at Costco. It's also available on Amazon and Christian books.
