Last year Kenji learned a couple of spirit helpers (Tola, Tor, Aphrodite & his personal spirit helper - his uncle David). I've been slowly trying to introduce more spirit helpers, yet lacked a captivating way to present them to him until the Feast came along. Whoo-hoo!
I wanted to impart on Kenji the same spirit of the Feast as us big people were partaking and decided to read to him pretty much the same stories that were planned out for the big kids, of course in a revised version and with lots of other activities involved. He did pretty well when I required of him to sit still for a good 45 minutes while we read stories and did our memory and review.
He just loves to listen to stories, it's as if it all comes alive for him. Sometimes he'll even ask for just one more story when it's time to end devotions. Ha! He simply loves reading from the MLK's! And he'll make me read the same stories for naptime! My little Word worm. Heh!
In the kids Feast material there came several spirit helper paper dolls which I enlarged, colored, cut, and taped up on his wall. Most of them were totally new spirit helpers, but others he new (Aphrodite, Love Fairy & Natalia) already. I happened to find a paper doll of Change amongst my activity pages and thought it pretty fitting to introduce him as well, after all that's what the Feast was all about, right? TYJ!
As an extra added little something I told him we could pitch a tent (in our room that is) for the Feast and he was oh, so very excited, happy, thrilled, what have you! Simple joys, heh. After the 2nd night, my back was so sore, that he sweetly said we could sleep on the bed instead. Awww, my little angel! I love him!!

Christmas is in the air!
First of all I'd like to wish a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my kid sister, Liz! Wow, I can't believe you're turning a whopping 18 years old!! My goodness! That makes me feel a wee bit old, heh. I love you lots, Liz, and pray that this year will be one filled with exciting new things for you. And of course be your BEST year yet! :) LY!
And secondly, I'd like to announce the birth of the handsome squishy, Quinn Dakota Luna, born yesterday to Mig and Amber in Aussie land. :) Congrats guys! Can't wait to see pics of him! LY!
Well now, with Christmas fast upon us I've started to find different little C-mas projects to do with Kenji in the afternoons or parent time. I had him choose a project the other day and he chose to make a snowman, of course I should have know he would have. :) He just loves the little snowman activity you do on Starfall, so to make a "real" snowman was oh, so very exciting for him!
There are a couple of pics of some cool things he built with "Magnetix's". He's just fascinated by magnets and if I may say so myself he's got quite the imagination for a little 2 year old. Two of the things he built were quite a shocker for me, yet at the same time I was once again very much impressed with his assimilation of the Word.
Last week I was reading to him about our many spirit helpers, (he knows quite a bit of them by name and knows what they're for etc). then I started to touch upon how we each have various personal spirit helpers as well. I made mention of our Elerian -- spirit beings who help us to be truly free in spirit, etc. -- and how this particular spirit helper is part horse.
He was fascinated, or maybe a little overwhelmed a first as his facial expression was one of astonishment, by what he heard and asked me if he had a horsey too. I told him that he did, and if he wanted at bedtime we could ask Jesus to show it to us and take us on a fun trip with the horsey. He was thrilled and kept saying; "Yes, yes, yes!" So cute!
Well when bedtime rolled around, I told him to close his eyes and think about Jesus, or Heaven, or a spirit helper and to lie real still and quiet while mommy prayed and asked Jesus to take us to a fun spirit trip! The Lord started to show me all these cool kiddo things, which I related to Kenji. It was awesome! After about 5 minutes I tried to wrap this spirit trip up but Kenji kept saying, "mas mommy, mas." How could I stop? So on we went up in a realm of fun and excitement and after a good long time, Kenji finally fell to sleep.
The next morning though he gave me a rundown of what he saw and did up, up, up in the sky! It was so cool! He said he went to a fun place full of balls, really big ones, where he played with his uncle/spirit helper David. And he rode a horsey -- his Elerian horse -- which he said was called "Yellow." Whoa, I was flipped and so proud of my little guy. And of course so thankful that the Lord came through for him. TYJ, for our wealth and knowledge of the spirit world!
Anyways, there is lots more to tell; like cute things, new things he's learned, progress he's making, etc., but I don't have the time right now to do so, so the pics will have to do for now - or until I find some 'extra' time on my hands. Not likely to happen soon, but nice wishing, right? ;) May you all have an awesome, inspiring, and miracle-filled C-mas push. LY!
