C.O.O.L. Kids at Christmas (Sunday School) at Suttons Bay Congregational Church

The C.O.OL. Kids closed out the year in fine style. In November, in light of the Thanksgiving Holiday, we learned about gratitude and how to thank God for our blessings.

I stink at playing with Star Wars action figures. I stink even more at creating battles with little green army dudes, or constructing worlds of Lego Bionicles. In short, my kids are beginning to think I’ve lost the ability to live in their world of play-ala-plastic.

And perhaps, I have.
