It's Marvin MOPS Week (2/23/12)!

Hello Ladies,

Hope you are all enjoying today’s bright sunny weather!  What a refreshing way to end the weekend.   This is a reminder that we have a MOPS meeting this Thursday, February 23^rd at 10 a.m. in room 246 (second floor, Faith classroom).

We have a fantastic meeting planned;   Jennifer Davis will be leading us in a craft creating first aid kits for our cars (because we LIVE in our cars!), AND we will address the universal, day to day mothering question that most of us ask one another regularly, “What do your kids eat?”   

Aren't we all searching for new recipes to try for our family?  Do you have a picky eater in your family?  Our wonderful Mentor “Chefs” will be sharing their successful kid eating strategies and menus for kid-friendly meals.  This will be an excellent time to share our experiences, recipes and ask questions about this pervasive topic.   

So that we are equipped and ready to employ this new knowledge,  please bring 1 - 3 "kid-friendly" recipes to share on Thursday... Just think if everyone will bring at least 1, we'll all go home with 50 new recipes to try with our families.... If we bring 2... 100 new fun recipes... Hope you will share with us your favorite recipes your kids enjoy!  Please remember to write on just one side of your paper or recipe card.
