We’ve had a great week. On Monday we talked about the story of Abram and Lot (uncle and nephew) in our study of God Made Families. “And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.” Genesis 13:8. God has given us families to support us, guide us in our choices and help us in times of trouble. We discussed ways we can help our mommies and daddies at home … setting the table, picking up our toys, picking up our towel when we take a bath, etc. Families help each other and we are learning how we can help our own family. On Tuesday we talked about the leaves changing colors and making wise food choices from our food pyramid. BTW, we have enough food wrappers and containers now. Thank you to everyone that helped by providing from your home. Wednesday’s literacy day was all about E. Thursday and Friday we worked on our dinosaur book.
Next week I will be away for the week on my last week of vacation. We are taking my mom on a driving vacation to see the fall foliage in Arkansas. In my absence, Ms Cassima will be here to lead the toddlers in their activities. I will be here ready for a new week on Monday, October 26th.
Have a blessed weekend.

Grandma's Philosophy
Research shows at least 80 percent of a child's brain development occurs by age three & as much as 30% of that brain capacity can be lost without a nurturing environment that encourages learning during those early years. The first years bring "doors of opportunity” that open a child’s life forever. Working hand-in-hand with parents, we provide a balanced mix of love, playtime, rest, devotions and learning activities, always striving to foster self-esteem, in a Christian focused environment as our little ones walk through these early doors of opportunity.
About Grandma
I strive to honor God in everything I do. I enjoy motorcycles, motorboats and scuba diving. I love my husband and my family and I adore my grandchildren. I have always had a heart for children. If children are around, I'm frequently the one on the floor playing with them. After 20+ years in HR, Accounting & Office Management, I chose a self employed venue in child care with aspirations of making a difference in the lives of children. I am a certified Professional Child Care Administrator licensed with the TDPRS to care for twelve children, ages infant thru pre-kindergarten. I employ one full-time assistant. I love my job but it's hard to let go when it's time for the children to move on. Even though they are not my grandchildren, I bond with them as if they were. Alas, tis the nature of the business. But if I can instill in them an excitement for learning, sow a few Godly seeds in their lives, if they can see Jesus thru me, it's certainly worth it.
About Ms Meagan
Megan has worked with children for many years both in the day school and Bible school environment. After trying her hand as a Paralegal, she decided to change her career path, go back to school and is now enrolled in college courses both on-line and at night at a local community college. Megan is focusing on a degree in Early Childhood Education/Child Development. Working here at GHD will provide her opportunities of practical application and she likes the aspect that it will allow her time to work on her studies while the children are napping. She anticipates staying with us for three years while she continues her studies and then pursues a career in the field of Early Childhood Education. I’m thrilled with the direction God has led me in finding Megan.
