day @ daycare

Day #17
Today has been busy! I sub @ a daycare (I worked @ this daycare for about 5 years, I quit in June but I sub every now & then) today I was with the 4yr old class, I am pretty sure it's my favorite age group. Out of the 5 kids I worked with today 4 of them I took care of when they were babies in the infant room & when they were in the 2yr old room & the 3yr old room. We made a gingerbread train, it looks really jacked up.

*FYI I put the train together, the kids put the candy on. {I have never built a gingerbread anything, hence the disgruntlement of the train}. I called the train "The Special Express".

I love working with these kids, in the last six months I have gotten more tough. Being a daycare teacher makes me long for the days when I have kids of my own & we can do projects, read books, cook & have fun.

Tomorrow I am subbing again in the same class, I am excited!

Friday is movie day & I am taking some of my favorite books:

Olivia Saves the Circus, Bear in Underwear & Bear in Long Underwear!

For now that is all...

Daycare. Rio & Jesus. sprinkler. Madrigals.

day #5

Oooh today was pretty good.

I sub at the daycare that I had worked at for 5 years, today I was in the 4 yr old room all day.

I kind of miss being a daycare teacher.

The 4 yr olds are one of my favorite ages.

They still have a little "baby" to them yet they don't have to be changed/fed or helped a lot.

They can do projects & can understand & have conversations.

We did group time, did an craft project, played outside, had our movie day, lunch & rest time.

Below is something that happened today, pretty funny stuff.

While watching Rio (cartoon movie, story is set in Brazil) at daycare with 3 & 4 year old children, a little boy saw the Jesus statue & said "It's Jesus, where is the cross?" I asked him "Is Jesus still on the cross?" he said "No" so I said "well there you have it." Then the kids were saying Jesus is in our heart, I said "You have to ask Him to be in your heart, then He will be" a little girl said "I'm Jesus" I said "No you aren't" She said "You have to ask me to be in your heart", I asked "What would you say" she said "I would say no". I responded "Well that tells me you are not Jesus, if you asked Jesus to be in your heart, He would not say no."

I also taught the kids how to do the sprinkler, they loved it....I told them to go home & show their parents what they learned at daycare.

Yeah... it was a good day.

Tonight I got all dolled up & went to madrigals. Great Lakes Christian College puts the madrigals on every year. It is a dinner theater of sorts, Renaissance era. I have friends who have been in it, I went four years in a row, skipped last year but went this year. My friend Jerod was singing in it. Tonight was great because I knew people who were in the drama & serving. I sat with some good friends & the food & wassail was great!

God has blessed me, so much! I forget, so easily how truly blessed I am. God is good.
