Another aspect of my life

I was very excited because it seemed like I would have a Saturday night at home, but alas, I was called in to work at 11 pm. It was an easy night, but I had obligations at church on Sunday morning, so couldn't go to bed when I got home.
Yesterday, I was in the nursery. We always have a great time, but man, am I tired afterwards. The kids are so fun and there was a children's sermon yesterday, so we spent the first 20 minutes with the big folks. That was a challenge, but I think the kids have to realize that they will soon be a part of grown up worship. After all, church isn't all fun and games....
We colored....
We went to the "store" and bought "groceries", and then we had a "meal".
We played, and played and played.....
Then, the crowning achievement was a puppet show with 3 humans and six puppets on stage at once. Far too many, I fear.

The other way I serve right now is on the worship team, which I really enjoy. I am "on" about every 2-3 months for about 6 weeks, which is fine by me. I have found, that because I am not singing on a regular basis, it is a real strain on my voice and I am usually hoarse for a few hours afterwards. I know that is because I am not singing correctly, and I try, but I have forgotten all of the things I learned in the past when I sang on a twice weekly basis.
This is during practice, I don't usually sing without shoes. The jury is out on that orange dress. It was a hot day.....
Today I have to get ready for my small group and finish the weekly things to do around the house. I'm not sure I will have time for everything, but I will try.
