Fresh Perspective

Up till now this blog as been about Nursery well now I have been called to Primary Chorister!

I am excited but really I am scared! They are gonna eat me alive. So I am going to attempt to blog about it. bare with me as I am horrible as expressing my thoughts in word.

(My feelings would best be expressed in a monologue from the made-for-TV movie: Super Star Starring Molly Shannon "I just want you all to know that I am multi-talented, but today I have chosen to express myself through song.")

Really Though so January we focused on I am a Child of God

It seems to be a favorite but not really mine

I did the walnut Idea, I am not sure which site I saw it on but sister kickball likened the song to the gospel in a nut shell I liked that thought so I put hints to the song in several walnut shells and carefully hot glued them closed then the kids got to smash them. it was great!

we still need to teach the order of the verses but they know the verses 

For February the song was I Know Heavenly Father Loves Me which is a favorite of mine. I decided to teach it to them in ASL super fun they are eating it up! so now we are just reviewing them.

I am missing the first Sunday in March so I decided to introduce the song today. I took the picture of Jesus with the children and asked the kids what it would have been like to be a child in Jesus time. would you behave differently? then I read the first verse of If The Savior Stood Beside Me. I took all the words/illustrations and we put them in order.

That is what we have done so far, I will try to keep you up to date on the future plans! 

Getting The Call

I have been in my ward for 4 weeks. our first week here was the first week as the new ward so we kinda got un-noticed or so I thought. After Sacrament I go to drop my little guy off and realize the nursery leader has no help. so I stick around. next thing you know, 3 weeks later I have been called as nursery leader. I am 23 years old I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 9 month old. So now I get to spend all week being with kids, which I am fine with....YES! its okay because I have an amazing husband that walks through the door after work and becomes Super Dad! he is really good at giving me a break. So cue Sunday, I recently heard someone call nursery the black hole....I see why, Your really disconnected especially when your a new member of the ward.

My whole goal for this blog is to put my ideas and helps out there and get some feedback from others. I haven't found any helps, additives for the new book so I am making some up as I go and always applicate thoughts and opinions!
