Sunday morning I woke around 2:00 am and couldn't sleep so I decided to bake some cookies for all the primary kids. I baked over 100 cookies!!! During singing time I pretended like I was making cookies . If they sang our practice songs good then I put in the correct ingredients. If it wasn't so good then I put in mustard or syrup. They were so mad the first time I added a bad ingredient. At the end I said that I was going to go bake them during sharing time. Then I brought out my traays of cookies I had previously baked for them to enjoy. I got the idea off the internet.... I do not take credit for the idea at all. I really don't know what I would do without every one else's ideas online for me to use. I've had this calling as Primary Chorister before but it seemed easier back then. I really wonder though because I had a three year old toddler and a newborn baby. I'm sure the size made a difference. Oh well... I must not have learned everything I needed to learn because I am here again trying to teach 100 kids new songs. I still don't know all their names.
Well... today Corey went with Megans 1st grade class on a field trip to the Fleet Science Center at Balboa Park. Megan kept saying over and over again how this was going to be the best day of her life. Spending time with your kids sure makes their day! Megan will never forget today I am sure. :-) It is so wonderful that Corey was able to take a day off of work to go. We are truly blessed!
One Hundred Years from now
(excerpt from "Within My Power" by Forest Witcraft)
One Hundred Years from now it will not matter what kind of car I drove,
What kind of house I lived in,
how much money was in my bank account
nor what my clothes looked like.
But the world may be a better place
because I was important
in the life of a child.
