Here is another review by an ABCJLM user! Thank you LaToya for sending me the link and letting me share with others! Last year I went on the search for a free Christian preschool curriculum to work with Bubba. After looking through a few choices I settled on ABC Jesus Loves Me (ABCJLM). While I didn't use the curriculum as much as I'd planned, ...
Making Cards: Tissue Paper & Vinegar
Making cards is a great craft for kids. They work on imagination and fine motor skills. Above that, they work on showing love to others when these cards are mailed or given away. The picture below is the latest in our crafts experiments. I was looking for a get-well-soon card and came upon the idea of using vinegar and ...
Kindergarten Readiness
The response to my blog about Kindergarten Readiness has been overwhelming! I truly understand the indecision that parents face. From your responses, I wanted to address three additional points which I have added to the post. "All of my child's friends are going to Kindergarten." - This is a statement that I hear a lot. This happened with ...

Is Your Child Ready for Kindergarten?
This is a question that I am very passionate about. What is your opinion about sending kids to kindergarten who have summer birthdays (or those who are close to the cutoff date)? As far as I know, every state has a cutoff birth date for children to begin kindergarten. The states I am familiar with place their cutoffs in August or September, ...
Happy #1 Spiritual Birthday Bubs
A year ago today, Bubs declared to his Daddy that he wanted to ask Jesus to come live in His heart. He realized that he makes bad choices and needed Jesus to forgive him and help him live a life that would please Jesus. He proudly told many friends and family about his decision. These past 365 days haven't been filled with perfection. Just like ...
12 Hours of Refueling
When I first heard this from another mom, I was shocked. At that time we had one child and he was still pretty young. We all know that babies require a lot of sleep. But toddlers and even preschoolers? Wasn't this a little excessive. Then we implemented it. We won't turn back! It is true. Our kids' bedtime is 7:00. They are not allowed ...
Thank You…
For the past six months, I have been working on the ABCJLM curriculum to get it ready to print in book form. But I have not been alone in this endeavor. So if you will allow me, I want to take a moment to thank some very special people for blessing, loving, and supporting me through this time. Tina and Raquel - Thank you, girls, for all of the ...
It’s Here!!
After coming up empty handed in my own search, I created a preschool curriculum for Bubs. Under the suggestion of my husband, I decided to make the curriculum available for free to everyone and ABC Jesus Loves Me was born. The response has been nothing but overwhelming. I am honored and humbled that God has allowed me to be part of this ...
