Fingerprint Fridays: Endings and Beginnings
Friday, June 11, 2010 at 7:00AM MAD21 By MAD21
I wrote earlier the week about our oldest graduating kindergarten. One of the things we like to do for big events in our house is have a countdown. My girls just love it. For this particular event, however, the countdown was bitter-sweet. We were all happy that summer was coming and all that it brings. But sad to say good-bye to another year of school (yes, my kids are still young enough that they LOVE school).
I am thankful that God is there for all of our endings, and our beginnings. His fingerprints are always a welcome presence in our lives, but it's in these times they are especially welcome.
Fellow blogger Beki at The Rusted Chain has a really great weekly post she does every Friday called "Fingerprint Friday." We are to look around and see where we can see God's fingerprints. Is it in nature? Kids? Animals? Anywhere? Go find out where Beki saw God this week, and be sure to check out the other bloggers who linked their stories as well.

What a great idea and what a fun board you made! I can feel the excitement from here!
I always loved school too and felt sad at the end of the year, but it's fun to have a break and look forward to a brand new year.
Sweet!! I teach 1st grade...
What a wonderful way to make a wonderful memory out of a milestone that might otherwise seem insignificant! These are the kinds of things we remember when the actual graduation ceremony is long forgotten. Great post!
I'm not sure exactly when we started doing the count downs, but our girls love it. It just brings all that much more joy in the anticipation of an event coming up.
