WE BOUGHT AN ARK!

After our weekly visit to the cafe that i mentioned a few posts ago my mother and i had the idea to go thrift shopping. There are alot of great thrift shops over in that area, the one we went to is within walking distance. I went in not expecting to buy anything but then I notice that they sold childrens books.

My son and i dug through the books for about 20min and picked out a few things that we agreed on.

thinking i was done i followed my mom over to a bin that she was digging through. as i was waiting for her something caught my eye at the bottom of the bin.. it was a book


i was pleasantly surprised to see that not only was it a book for children it was a bible story!

and then..... I OPENED IT!!


it was a huge beautiful paper pop up ark. i quickly inspected it for any missing pieces or tears but by some act of god it was flawless.


it came with two of each animal and little people to put on the ark.

it also included the story of Noah in a well writen story book.


i am for sure going to be using this during our school time to teach my kids about noah and the ark.
God was truly guiding me that day! i mean i hadnt even planned on going to that store, and then planned on not buying anything, and just when i thought i was done i just happened upon this book.
The type of book i had been digging for in that endless pile of books.

and the best part
i only paid...
can you guess?? if you did im almost 99% sure that you would be wrong...

$0.60 yep thats right. only 60 cents.
GOD IS SO RAD!
