Ahhhhhh VBS. Day 1 was quite interesting to say the least. In the end we had 317 childrens in class. Thats a lot of kids. And come noon, when I finally got away from the registration tables, I informed them all ~ i don't believe i really "like" kids. not even my own. LOL. they are all wiggle worms, full of life and energy, and questions. and they get lost when you're not looking. but...i got a new tee-shirt out of the deal. which laid lightly upon my sunburned shoulders and neck. "Where did you get a sun burn?" you ask. we went to the beach Sunday after the No Piru verdict. it was a lovely day to be at the beach. sat there and told stories of wave jumping and body surfing when we were kids. ocean water is just plain yucky tasting.
so there was a little boy in the kindergarten or first grade class yesterday. he was new, but very much involved in all the activities,,,,,coloring, crafting, bible-story, the whole thing. at the end when they were getting revved up singing in between songs, he yells, "Hey, who IS Jesus???"
Does that not define the very essence of VBS? Mom's all over town dropping their kids off at every VBS through the summer ~ kind of free babysitting ~ but see, He works ~ He is always working!!!!! I am sure this little boy is going to find the best friend he has ever had by the end of this week. how cool is that!!!!
