""KINDERGARTEN FIELD DAY

Helping with a sack race

A class photo
The children are four, five and six years old

After the races each child received a sweet treat
 
Every Thursday we visit the Sogulu Kindergarten. Today is Field day
and Teacher appreciation day.  Parents in the village prepared
a plate of treats for each child to enjoy after the races.
They also prepared a beautiful lai for the teacher.
This teacher wants the students in her class to hear
what she calls "real" stories because she knows that
someday God will ask her what she taught her
students and she wants him to know she taught them that
they are his children.
 
3 Nephi 17:21
...and he took their little children, one by one,
 and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.

"THE END OF THE DAY"



 
The view from the deck at our home in Sogulu.
Every day we come home to the color and drama of Taveuni
The colors are brilliant and the air is soft and inviting.
After hard and not so hard days, the beauty of our back yard warms our
hearts and lets us know that God is watching over our efforts.
