If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!After all my fun Nursery lesson preparations (which I didn’t mention here), Degen and I joined Maggie in the fun of being sick. Now we’ve got three of us sick, and maybe Colin following. So far my symptoms are [...]

I’ve had requests that I post my infamous talk here, and I’m willing to oblige, but only if you promise not to make me read it aloud! I’m posting the rough draft–as far as I got in actually writing it before I gave it (I’m NOT revising it, nor am I going to read through [...]

Okay, this is a little later than I wanted to post this, but better late than never. I taught the “I am Thankful for my Eyes” lesson (#19) in Nursery yesterday. I stuck to lesson materials, but adapted it for the little ones and our schedule. In our Nursery, the schedule goes in this order [...]

I may have already mentioned that I got a new calling at church last week. I get to be a Nursery Teacher! In my last calling I’d occassionally get to substitute in the Nursery and would always say how much I liked it and would love to serve there officially. I guess God was listening, [...]
