In AWANA the kids are divided into groups. Cubbies are 3-4 years old. Sparks are kingergarden through 2nd grade. T&T clubs are 3rd through 6th grade and there is a boys group and a girls group.
D & E are in T&T Girls. They LOVE it. Zoe is in Cubbies and LOVES it too.
Each group has what's called a starting book. It's basically an introduction to the program and there are memory verses. You have to pass the starting book before you can get your club's shirt (a vest for the Cubbies and one for Sparks and a polo shirt for the T&T group). It's a big deal for our girls to say all the verses in their starting book to get their vest or shirts. A certain mommy may have used that as leverage to help her Cubbie learn her verses.
That Cubbie may have gone to AWANA last night and said all her verses to her teacher. When N picked her up last night Zoe's teacher told him she could now get a book and a vest. As Zoe and N waited in the foyer, I ran to the office to buy a book, bag and vest for Zoe. I didn't even make it back up the stairs before I was tackled by Zoe as she screamed, "MY VEST! MY VEST! CAN I SEE IT? OH BOY! CAN I WEAR IT?" She jumped and hopped in excitement. I don't think she's ever been this excited in her life. She could not contain it.
I have a feeling next week, we're going to have another girl who is just as excited. D will likely be getting her shirt next week.
It's a good week at our house.
