This summer, Garrett attended Bible School at our church, St. Theresa. It lasted five days and went from 8:30-11:30am. There were about 40(ish) kids that were a part of the Bible School week and Garrett was probably the youngest. Because I stayed and volunteered through the week, I was able to take some pictures of Garrett while he was with his "Tribe" and participating in the different activities. The theme was "Hometown Nazareth, Where Jesus was a Kid". I bought the music cd from the program and Garrett and Grant both love listening to it in the van. Of course, when it was time to sing and do the actions with the music at Bible School, Garrett pretty much stood and took everything in. But, in the van, he sings every word and does all the motions......typical Garrett:) Garrett made a buddy this week too. His name is Ryan and he is a 7th grader at St. Theresa. Ryan was one of the tribe helpers and he kind of took Bub under his wing and just looked out for him all week. I was so appreciative of that. Garrett talked about Ryan a lot that week and still will every once in a while. He came home with a number of crafts, newly learned songs, and memories. My baby boy is growing up......
