VBS

Aiden attended our church's Vacation Bible School for the first time this year!  I thought it would be good for him to go, to have a similar experience to school before starting in the fall.  I went with him, but helped with an older group (4th graders).  His group leaders were Mr. Michael and Ms. Emily and he had friends in the group.  The week's lesson was on David's captivity in Babylon.  Each night, the kids had snack, played games, listen to a lesson/skit, did a craft, and sang songs with motions.  Aiden did great the first night, quiet and shy as usual, but no problems.  He listened to his teachers and he knew I was there in the building, so he was comfortable.  The next day I told him we were going back, and he was reluctant.  He didn't understand why it was two days in a row (as he's used to church once a week).  The second and third nights went great, and he had a lot of fun.  Unfortunately he got sick, so we couldn't finish out the week, but it was a great experience for him and he learned a little bit too.
