Maria can’t wait for the Shoebox Kids skating party—but a squabble with her brother, a mean word on a foggy window, and a lie to avoid blame spoil the fun. Later, a call from Mrs. Shue and a heartfelt talk with Dad help Maria see how even “small” lies break trust. She prays, apologizes to Mom and Chris, and discovers a “Jesus footprint” in her life: the courage to tell the truth. A warm story about honesty, making things right, and noticing how Jesus helps us do the hard but good thing.

Talk about it:

• Why did Maria choose to lie, and how did it affect her family?
• What does Dad mean about trust when someone lies “once in a while”?
• What is a “Jesus footprint,” and where did Maria see one?
• Who do you need to apologize to—or tell the truth to—this week?
