History of The Ladybug Cafe

Once upon a time, there was a little girl with a crazy imagination and LOTS of energy. Her parents nicknamed her Ladybug. She was born into a family that loved to eat! Not only did her family love to eat, they love to COOK--a food of love thing (Emeril Lagasse)--and spent a good bit of time in the kitchen. ....come back for the rest of the story!

While in search of a little inspiration...

I read the most recent post on Beth Moore's blog. If you haven't "met" Beth Moore, you need to meet her! I have completed several of her Bible studies - amazing! Here is the link to the yesterday's blog post Want to share something fun? The posting is great, but what I found hillarious was the comment made by Linda...ENJOY!! I laughed out loud!!

Beth, What a fun idea! I teach school and if there is one thing you learn early on, you can’t control their mouths. Plus, the most challenging ones seem to come with the most energy and opinions. So, I’m teaching about cultures around the world. One part of culture is religion, a topic that a public school teacher has to be careful about when you’re teaching children. We were highlighting a country in Africa where they primarily worship in mosques. Well, that led to the inevitable questions about churches, sanctuaries, temples, synagogues and mosques and who worshipped where. Eventually, my most challenging little guy wanted to know what the difference is between Protestants and Catholics. I simply told him that the difference is primarily how they view Jesus. At that, he gets out of his chair, marching to the front of the room where he can command an audience, and before I can stop him nearly shouts at the top of his lungs, “I know something about Jesus. He had two dads… God and Mary’s boyfriend!” I quickly ushered him to his seat and redirected the students to the culture worksheet we were working on but couldn’t help but chuckle all day long about the sometimes unbridled chaos and content of the classroom.
