What would have happened had Noah not obeyed God’s command? It is unthinkable. We take for granted that Noah did what God requested, made and ark according to plan and collected all the animals two by two, and the world as we know it was given a new chance.
Today’s surprise consists of animals! Animal cookies can be made from your own cutouts or buy ready-made then ice and decorate in fantasy colors, construct an ark full of animals you hang on your tree, or make a Jesse tree origami project.
