Church, Swimming, and a Great Day

Church today was awesome.  Madi's class focused on contentment.  We talked about a series called "I love my church."  Riley and Jules learned about Moses.  It was somewhat of a bittersweet day for Madi.

Next week all of the fifth graders move up to the middle school group.  Her friends are all in this group.  We had her be with kids her age when she first came as we were only expecting to have her for a year and figured then she'd be around her same age friends.  Well, they are now all going to middle school and she is going into fifth.  So she'll be staying with the upcoming fifth graders.  She cried some about it after church and we had a good talk about it.  Gave her hugs and told her it is ok to be bummed.  That there will be other great things that happen and that it'll still be great for her to be in the kid's area with other fifth graders.

Riley will be moving up to the big kid church and she'll be with Madi starting next week.  So crazy to think about!

After church, we got home and chatted with Madi about attitude and the church stuff and some other stuff.  We had a great lunch.  Then she wrote some more about Camp - will try to have her finish it tomorrow so I can post it.  Then we went to my parents' house and swam for a little while.  The girls had a blast!!!
