What parent hasn’t had to deal with a to-do list a mile long? My wife has always been a go-getter. Undoubtedly, she inspired this mom’s to do list cartoon
As amazing as it may seem, there is a cure for the super busy parent. It takes intentionality and discipline. But it is possible. The big challenge is learning to say no when the world seems to be asking us for the moon… and then some!
Handbell choirs are a curious thing to me. Nobody in the group can go on a solo career, you can’t plug the bells into an amplifier, and you rarely hear about an exclusive handbell concert. Besides, how do you name one? So on that note, enjoy this handbell choir cartoon.
Last Sunday, I had several kids who wanted me to play games with them. They like it when an adult takes an interest in them. Several years ago, such an incident inspired this “down to our level cartoon.”
I’ve learned that when I’m consistently in a classroom, and I take an interest in what the kids are doing, they naturally want me to participate in their activities. To me, it’s common sense. But how often do we do just that? How often do we set aside our agenda for a moment and focus on the other person?
Happy Easter! This morning, the birds are singing as I get ready for this Resurrection Sunday. Let’s start off with an Easter bunny controversy cartoon.
The Easter bunny has always given me the creeps. I giant six-foot rodent never appeared to me no matter how many treat-filled eggs I received. Besides, an Easter egg hunt looked to me like a terror-filled survival of the fittest. I have an early memory of running frantically to try to get at least one egg before the bigger, faster kids took them all.
I have worked with kids at church for some time. My goal has been to pass along some of the joys and insights I have learned along the way. That can be challenging when children are excited and very active. So this led to this spiritual discipline for kids cartoon.
There is a big difference between a Sunday morning and an evening group of kids. On Sunday morning, most children are subdued. They may be just waking up. Perhaps the cereal hasn’t kicked in or they were doing activities the night before.
