My cousin’s daughter teaches Kindergarten at a school in our town.\u00a0 They have clubs that the kids meet in 2 times a month.\u00a0 One club is “The Princess Club”.\u00a0 She asked Keilee if she would come dressed as Elsa and read a story.\u00a0 Of course Keilee said “YES”.\u00a0 She offered to pay her but Keilee refused.<\/p>\n

This school is a Title 1 school which means most of the students come from low income homes.\u00a0 So many of them do not speak English.\u00a0 These kids probably won’t be having Elsa at their birthday parties anytime soon.\u00a0 I wish you could have seen their faces when they walked in and saw “Elsa”.\u00a0 It was priceless.\u00a0 Keilee read to them and then answered questions.\u00a0 She then had her picture made with each one of them separately.\u00a0 It was a wonderful experience for them and for us.<\/p>\n

\"Elsa<\/p>\n

We\u00a0 have always had such wonderful support through Instagram.\u00a0 I have met amazing people both on my blog and there.\u00a0 These are some goodies that a couple of friends sent us this week.<\/p>\n

Keilee is still crocheting every night.\u00a0 Here are a few of her latest “Kreations” on her Keilee’s Kreations shop.\u00a0 The Alice doll and the finger puppets are still available.<\/p>\n

As some of you know I work from home VERY sporadically.\u00a0 Since we have no house payment, car payment or credit cards our needs are few.\u00a0 But it is after Christmas and Keilee’s birthday and our money is very low.\u00a0 The other day we were coming back from the store when I told Keilee “I am worried about money.\u00a0 If I had another $100 we could at least make it through March”.\u00a0 She told me what she always says, “Mom it will work out.\u00a0 It always does”.<\/p>\n

When we got home I went to the mailbox and this was in it. No stamp, no signature just God providing for us through an angel.\u00a0 I should know by now not to doubt.<\/p>\n

Keilee’s week has been filled with Sir Thomas More’s Utopia, Macbeth, Geometry 3 days, Animal Behavior, CNN Student News, finishing up her unit on Fungi which she loved, writing in her novel (this has been SO hard.\u00a0 Since she lost her entire book a few months ago it has been hard for her to get back into writing), and working on Bringing Smart Back.\u00a0 Here is the video.\u00a0 I learned things I never knew about Valentine’s Day.\u00a0 She does such extensive research and has learned SO much doing this YouTube channel.\u00a0 Be sure to check out Bringing Smart Back<\/a> website for lesson plans, recipes and crafts for this week’s episode.<\/p>\n
