While sharing about Jacob's dream, I mentioned how 'He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth' (Genesis 28:12), and the kids were so curious! We colored images of Jacob resting and the beautiful ladder filled with angels. One little girl, Mia, was so excited that she used every color crayon she could find!
