February First Friday

We put decorated and passed out tissue boxes to the residents at a local nursing home.  These once a month trips offer so much to the children.  They are able to attend mass with the residents, have lunch with the other children, learn about a particular topic, and create a craft (that they often give to the residents).  This is also an opportunity for me to get some social time with other moms.  The support for the residents, the children, and the mothers is priceless.

After delivering the tissue boxes to the residents, we decorated Valentine cookies.  Part of the topic included a discussion about storing treasure in heaven.  The cookies represented a treasure on earth.
