My husband Bob and I are lucky to serve each Sunday in the nursery - we watch all the children ages 18 months-3 years old while their parents attend their Sunday classes. I love this service because it gives the parents a well needed break, and we get the chance to play with the kids and spoil them rotten, eat good food, play with toys and get ourselves messy. And of course we teach them about Jesus Christ, and God's love for them. But anyway, today we had a special celebration because it's the last time we will be all together in the same classroom. Long story, but to put it simply, the two wards who meet in our building are splitting. So our class will be devided into two classes, and I won't get to see all of the kids each week anymore. We wanted to show all the kids how much we love them. So today we brought special treats in the nursery - CUPCAKES!!! Thank goodness I had my camera so I could capture these moments on film. Look how cute they are in the pictures - especially Ivy who leaned over to eat her cupcake without her hands!! ;-) Man, I love these kids with all my heart - their friendship in my life is such a blessing. And may their parents forgive me for their chocolate covered faces, dirty clothes, and the suger highs they must have had when they got home. Bob said they could send us their laundry bill.. ;-) But anyhow, we learned a very valuable lesson today- NEVER bring cupcakes to the nursery!! You can never have enough wet-wipes handy... Happy Happy Joy Joy!!
