Teaching a Child to Cook

It really depends on a family's values but when I was kid, I was not allowed in the kitchen. For some reason, my parents did not think I would love cooking. The truth is I do not like cooking. I feel it is a waste of time when I can buy food somewhere else. However, I have much respect for those who love cooking.

I taught all my children to cook. Family meals are now the responsibility of the older children in our family. Here is Joseph learning FAJITAS for the first time.

Our Lady of Fatima Visits our House

Raising Catholic kids is one of our mission in life. One way to do so is to form traditions in your families. I had fond memories of the status of Our Lady of Fatima visiting our house when I was young. I am so glad that I can provide the same memories to my children.

Noah and Chronicles of Narnia

Noah, 3rd grade, is currently reading the Chronicles of Narnia series.

So far, he has read the "The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe". The second book that he read is "The Magician's Nephew".

We cannot find the third book so I let him read a book of Laura Ingalls. He likes it.

The Robinsons were not able to get a copyright of the Chronicles of Narnia but they highly recommend it.

Noah was St. Ignatius of Loyola

A priest costume is very easy to make. Use a white short sleeve shirt and turn it around with the button side at the back. For detailed instructions, read my article at associated content.

Rose was Joan of Arc

We used the knight costume available at Walmart. It looked good on our daughter.
