Get your Kids involved in Card Cupids


Beverly's grandkids, Kelsey, Kate, and Avery thoroughly enjoyed creating cards for Card Cupids. Beverly is my future sister-in-law, and has been very generous in sending goodies to Card Cupids.
Doing something for others is a great lesson to teach your kids, and grandkids.

This is a great activity for Vacation Bible School, or a
Summer kids project on a rainy day.

Please take a photo, and send to me to share on Card Cupids "Together Tuesdays",
and get your family, friends, students involved in Bringing a Smile to a child.
