A is for Apple...

That is what Marissa learned this week.

She did an excellent job coloring her Apple red.
And little sister got in on the fun, because, these days, what one sister does, the other sister does. :)
YAY! She was very excited about it!
Left-handed like her mommy?!
Marissa was very intense during her coloring, she made sure there was not one speck of white showing in that apple.
She was very proud of her red Apple!
Allie was off and running at this point, but she sat long enough to get a little coloring done:)
I am also trying to teach the girls a Bible verse to go along with their letter. This week, in honor of the letter A and an Apple, we learned Psalm 17:8, which says, "Keep me as the Apple of your eye, hide me in the shadow of your wings." Marissa learned that A is for Apple, that she is the Apple of God's eye and that means that she is "sooo special". :) (It's so sweet to hear her explain all of that...I will try to get it on video.)
Here she is working on her "block" A and tracing. She did such a great job!
This week, we are moving on to B! Stay tuned! We'll "b" back. (hahaha...)
