Great scott!  Join us as we go back in time to see the power of love with a new series that travels to the past, and flies back to the future!  Set your clocks, because you don't want to miss God's plan to give you hope and a future - it's the greatest message of all time!   Get ready for the time of your life with KidPak Adventures:  Time Travelers!

There it is, our mail-out description and the title screen.  It's a little blatant, but that's okay as October 21st is the whole reason we're doing the series now.  As for a plot of the series itself, that's starting to formulate a bit - and happily it has nothing to do with "Back to the Future" whatsoever.  Except for the concept of time travel, of course.  Though I've never seen "Timescape" or read "Vintage Season," the idea behind the ongoing story will be a reverse of those two concepts.  That is to say, rather than see time-traveling tourists that visit different disaster sites before calamity strikes, why not have time traveling tourists visiting some of the greatest people in history before they are born?  And with that thought in mind, it could be any one in our audience who these time travelers are here to see.  That sort of sets up the fact that there is so much potential with each of these children, and that they can in fact one day become some of the greatest people in history.  This includes Madison, of course.

Today she was at school, although there was no activity after school.  Daddy got home a little later from work, and we had a nice dinner together as we always do.  And as always, before bedtime there was reading - we're still working around the time of the Revolutionary War with time traveler Rush Revere.  These are longer chapters, but Madison is still interested in the ongoing story.  

We watched "Race to Witch Mountain" tonight, which was good, and safe for Madison as well.  There were a few scary parts for her, but she wasn't really ever terrified.  It was just a fun movie, that's all.  And one that seems to constantly move, not letting up.  Mommy and Daddy like the cameos of the original actors, although Mommy isn't interested in seeing the originals again any time soon.  Daddy loved the fact that they threw a Winnebago in there somewhere, and Madison enjoyed the Stormtroopers.  Anyway, popcorn and a movie - sort of a Friday night thing now.  

We're getting classwork assignments from Madison, and they are just precious.  Daddy will have to scan a few to share here, but she's quite the writer at this point.  She is also quite the clothing designer.  She has a very active imagination about what kinds of clothing would look good on certain characters, what kinds of colors and material and so forth.  

Okay, everyone's a bit tired tonight.  That's the new schedule for you - early to rise, now early to bed.  We're all looking forward to sleeping in a bit tomorrow...
