FRIENDS FOR TEACHER TIM

Hi, everyone...this is Teacher Tim, with Dyzzee the Dinosaur puppet. Wow, I can't believe our trip is almost over. Tomorrow (Thursday) is our last day of the conferences, then we fly home on Friday. I should be back at the daycare on Monday morning (yippeee...I can hardly wait!).

Some of you may be wondering what this big meeting is all about. Well, it's sort of like a school, but more fun. I go to special classes starting before the time preschool begins. Then a couple of times, everyone gets together for lunch or dinner and we sing and laugh and hear more about Jesus. There's a lot of people here (over a thousand!)...and one whacky dinosaur.

I met a lot of nice people who love Jesus and like helping kids. You probably know a couple of them.

Teacher Tim and Bibleman!

Teacher Tim and Miss Patty Cake.

When I got back to my room, it looked like Dyzzee was worried. He had climbed up on top of a free toy I got and was looking down at my big pile of toys and books and cd's and other stuff that I got at my meetings. I almost thought he was going to fall.

I asked him why he was up there. He said that he was afraid that I was going to have so much stuff, I wouldn't have room to put him in my suitcase! I guess even puppet dinosaurs get worried or scared sometimes, and they don't always know how to tell a grownup how they feel. What would you say to Dyzzee?

Don't worry...I'll have plenty of room to pack all the neat stuff I got, plus Dyzzee! I've had to hide the cookies from him, but I bet he will find them in the bag when I pack him for the trip home.

Bye for now, boys and girls!
