T here is always something going on in VioletKids! In May, some of the VioletKids made a new friend—Mr. Mark! Mr. Mark has shared his gift of music with us and has already made a huge impact. The response to having a “real music guy” has been every bit as enthusiastic as I imagined. I have it on good authority (from a first-grade boy) that the Hallelu Song is way better with the “real music guy” playing guitar and singing. If you have no idea what that last sentence means, maybe you should come volunteer in VioletKids so you can learn the song too! Mother’s Day was such a sweet day, and I truly wish you all could have witnessed it. Each of the kids was able to make a craft and then choose a rose to give away. One little girl created quite the line behind her as she carefully examined each flower, only to look up and whisper that her mom was the best and needed the most perfect flower. One boy waited for the line to die down before returning to ask for a flower for his grandmother because she needed one too. I loved watching the kids run to their moms, grandmas, and aunts with arms outstretched to present their chosen blooms. I couldn’t help but think of Matthew 6:30 (NLT): “And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you.” God loves the little children who so tenderly chose those flowers, and He loves the women who faithfully care for these precious children. VioletKids families: If you travel to a different town, state, or country this summer, please bring back a postcard for our wall! We would love to see where you have been. We also know summer vacation is a fun time to try new things. There is a table set up behind the Check-In desk with games available to borrow. Stop by and grab a game to enjoy with your family, then bring it back and try a different one. It’s a great way to enjoy some free family fun together!
