Another Fun Day!

Hey, tween girls . . . Do you love being in the kitchen? Do you love to cook? Then today’s your day, as it’s National Kids Take Over The Kitchen Day! And that means Mom and Dad are kicked out! But how about treating them to breakfast, lunch, and dinner, instead, and having friends and neighbors over, too?!

Maybe it’s eggs benedict for breakfast, a burger and veggies for lunch, and maybe a chicken stir fry for dinner with a frozen yogurt berry parfait for dessert. It might also be fun creating new concoctions today, too!

If you love doing this, you’re sure to have the gift of hospitality, too! So have a fun special day, as your family and friends are sure to love it, too!

It’s National Beach Day!

Hey, tween girls . . . So who doesn’t love the beach? I think most of us do! Another one of God’s wondrous creations, too! Whether it’s the ocean or lake, I’m hoping you might be going there today or planning your next trip!

So what do you love most? Wading in the water, taking a swim, or strolling along the shore. Maybe it’s collecting cool shells, creating fun sand castles, or burying your feet in the sand . . . or lounging on a comfy beach chair, listening to the waves rolling in and out, and watching the sunset? Whatever it is, I hope you do exactly that!

So Happy National Beach Day to you! I hope it’s a perfect day!

It’s National Go Fishing Day!

Hey, tween girls . . . so who loves to fish? I was never that big on it, but loved eating them, and it was always fun being on the lake. I grew up in Minnesota, and there are a few lakes there . . . about 10,000 of them, that is! My dad loved to fish, and I remember going out on the boat with him, and I must say, it was fun when one tugged on my line. My dad would give pointers on reeling it in, and he’d do the rest. And there was nothing better than fresh fish for dinner, too!

So how about you? Do you love to fish and love eating them, too? If so, I hope you can go fishing today or maybe sometime soon!

Hey, tween girls . . .

It’s National Flip Flop Day!

Flip flops are fun . . . wouldn’t you agree?! They’re so comfy and easy to slip on, and love wearing them anywhere, and a must at the beach!

Now that summer’s here, I love wearing them all the time. How about you?

So have a happy National Flip Flop Day, and I hope you’re especially wearing them today to celebrate this fun day!

It’s Share a Smile Day!

Hey, tween girls . . . Aren’t smiles the best?! Whether giving one or someone smiling at you, it just makes us happy . . . wouldn’t you agree? I think we all look best with a smile on our face, and if you’re having a rough day, it can even lift your mood, too!

So in celebration of Share a Smile Day, how about smiling a bit more today with your family and friends and even strangers walking by. It might just surprise you and even be fun. It’s sure to make your day great and someone else’s day great, too!

It’s National Ballet Day!

Hi, tween girls! Do you like ballet? Are you a ballet dancer, too?

I remember going to ballet class when I was a little girl. I loved wearing pink tights and ballet shoes. It felt so special to me. We’d practice our steps and turns, over and over, and take little jumps across the floor. My ballet teacher was so pretty and kind, too.

I remember our recital, my heart racing, once onstage, the bright lights in my eyes. I loved our fancy costumes. It was fun to perform and a very special night.

So in celebrating National Ballet Day, perhaps there’s a performance you’re going to, or maybe you’re in one and a ballet dancer, too.

If not, may you take a moment to appreciate ballet and the world of dance and all of the young dancers and older ones, too!

It’s National Compliment Day!

Hey, tween girls . . . 

It’s nice to be complimented. Wouldn’t you agree?! … when someone tells you you look nice or are a hard worker or have a nice smile. I’m sure you can think of more!

God’s word says in John 15:12 to love one another and in 1st Thessalonians 5:11, to encourage one another and build each other up. And when we do, it’s sure to make someone feel great and even make us feel great, too.

So how about giving a few compliments today . . . to your family and friends and even the clerk at the store! It’s sure to put a smile on their face and make their day. You may even end up getting a huge hug, too, so have a fun, joy-filled day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, tween girls! … a season and day of thanks and turkey with those you love.

How about taking a moment to focus on all that you’re thankful for along with thanking God, too.

Psalm 106:1 says, “Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord for He is good; His love endures forever.”

May it be a joy-filled, wonderful day!
