Our Good Shepherd

Well it has been a very busy weekend! On Saturday my sister in law got married! It was a great wedding and Bunny and Pup were both one of the 5 flower girls! They looked beautiful! I wasn't able to get many pics, but I got a few:

I did her hair. It turned out pretty well!

So cute!

Pup wasn't happy about the dress and so she would stay still for long! This was the best Pic I got of her! I hope that someone else got one!

The other thing that happened is that I finally finished my Good Shepherd set! Yeah! It turned out fairly well I think and Bunny and Pup both wanted to play with it right away! (Yes there was a fight!) But there was some great work done with this set already and I think that there will be a to more! This work is a corner stone of the Catechises of the Good Shepherd. Dr. Sofia Calalletti discovered that this image of Jesus was the one that was the most meaningful to children all over the world. Thus this work became a beautiful center work! I really hope that this leads my girls to some deeper thoughts of the beauty of God!

  1. Your girls look like little princesses in their dresses. I love Bunny's hair, you did a fantastic job. The Good Shepherd set turned out really good too.

  2. Hi! I am a relatively new reader of your blog. I just came across it through another blog (I think it was Lori's Montessori Moments blog above actually!). I'm a catechist and blog about catechesis, and was so happy and surprised to see the Good Shepherd on your blog today! Do you do CGS with a Church or as a part of homeschooling or both? I'm enjoying reading and have added your blog to my reader! Happy Easter!

  3. Lori~ Thanks! I think that they are cute! But I am a little biased! :) OH and THANKS for voting! I am voting for you too.

    Leslie~ I'm so glad that you stopped by! We go to an atrium once a week at a church in our city. The girls LOVE it! We also have a few works at home. I am also going to take the training so that I can start an atrium at our church! So we are doing a little bit of all it! I try to post the new stuff when we get it! My next project is the upper room/ last supper work!

  4. Hi Stephanie! Does the program in your city have a weekday program? When do you start training? I hope you love it! I always feel like it is a mini retreat. I love the last supper work! I made our figures with sculpy over a pipe cleaner and foil base they have worked out well - you can see a few photos of them on my blog at http://fromthesheepfold.blogspot.com/2011/03/last-supper.html
    I'm so glad I found you!
