ShareSummertime Fun is Almost Over
It’s time to put away the finger paints, shorts, swimsuits, sidewalk chalk, and summertime beach stuff… school is right around the corner! Before heading back to the classroom, Rachelle and her two friends, Emma and Lynette, went to our last Family Retreat of the season… and, wow, did they have fun face painting! Tell us what you will miss about summer… and what you’re looking forward to at school!
What If Your Hands Don't Work?
Lots of kids with disabilities can’t use their hands. But look what little Lisa in the Dominican Republic (a small island nation south of Florida) did – after she saw a picture of Joni drawing with her mouth, Lisa decided to give it a try. Wow, now that shows grit! You might want to give it a try to see how Lisa does it (but be very careful… no swallowing pencils and no biting through crayons)! Hey, we’d like to see your artwork – just send it in to Kid’s Corner here at Joni and Friends!
Meet Amazing Grace!
I always light up when I meet kids who say, “I'm praying for you, Joni!” That’s what my friend, Grace, told me when I was at our Family Retreat last week in Murrieta Hot Springs. Grace has Down syndrome (and she even has battled cancer). But this little girl LOVES Jesus (and our Kids’ Corner, too). Hey, why don’t you say “hi” to Grace and post a comment to her on the blog?!
