Sunday School
We reach another milestone with Sara Ellen tomorrow. She will be attending sunday school for two year olds at Calvary. I think she should enjoy it. At the least, she should not be unhappy because she is accustomed to the church and loves going for any reason. Yay! I think she will like spending time with the other kiddies, I’ve seen her play very well with others whatever their age.
The tricky part is the class takes place during the 9 am service…. We always attend the 11 am service, but she is too old for nursery so we’ve reached the point where we have to get up early. I’m going to be a little yawny and have to get us together fast … right.
The time is not the only tricky part actually, I agreed to help teach the class. There are supposed to be teams of two to switch weeks so that means I’d get to worship too. I’m just not sure what I’ve gotten myself into. The only reason I’ve taught kids in the past is to make money leading them in crafts and dance. I don’t often look forward to structured engagements, I get frazzled. Now, the church class is for 2 year olds so it won’t require so much teaching as caring and a little thematic guidance. But there is a curriculum which I’d rather leave to others.
It might not be so bad. It’s just as I said, I get nervous. We may be moving out of the area in a few months, only God knows where, so I may not be doing it long.
If it is any comfort, I think you´ll do just fine
Great for Sara Ellen to be able to go to sunday school, even though you have to get up early.
Where are you moving? Peace!
No idea where we’re moving. Maybe we’ll figure that out next month. I feel a lot better about “teaching” after this morning. I met one of the other volunteers this morning when we took S. Amy was very nice and it was a nice gathering of little people. I realized (maybe I was hearing God’s reminders) that I don’t have to follow somebody’s ideas of how I should teach. I can do it in a way that is more comfortable and reflective of myself. I am at home spending time with little ones and God confirmed me in that.
