Adventures in Subbing

I have been subbing for around a month now. It has never been boring! Kindergarten is my favorite grade. The kids are so honest, so open. Well, mostly honest. lol

A week ago I was subbing in Art. The Kindergarten class had to make a picture out of shapes. More specifically, a house is a square shape, a roof is a triangle, a door is a rectangle, etc. Then a snowman with circles.

After each kid began I walked around to see how they were all doing. I came up to a little boy and asked what was on his paper. He said it's a fish. I took the "fish" off his main paper and told him to start again. Walk back around and get to this little boy again and say, "What's that?" He says, "A semi-truck." It ACTUALLY looked like a semi-truck! This time I said, "Just go with it. It looks awesome." :)

It was a lot of fun. Much better than HS.

ChoOsE jOy!!!

This past Sunday's service was Ah-maze-za-zing! :) Pastor Dan talked about choosing joy and removing worry from your life.

I have always lived this statement, but have never placed it in those words, "Choose joy!" It is so simple! And God makes it so easy! When you go about your day, don't worry, rest in knowing that God is taking care of things. :) From money, to sickness, to not enough time in your day. God has it covered.

So in the very words of Bobby McFerrin, a believer in Christ and well known musician:

Don't worry... be happy.
Don't worry be happy now.
Dooooo.... da do ba do be do ba dooooo.... do ba do ba do be doooooo.... do ba do ba dooo..
