I started my new job today. It looks like I will be working every Thursday and every other Friday for MOPS meetings. I liked it and had a great time with all the kids. I didn't even smoke for a whole three hours and you wanna hear the best part? I only thought about it one time and that was all it was...a thought and the desire never reared it's ugly head again. I thought that was great that the Lord sustained my bad habit for that period of time.
Now back to how things went...I took care of kids from newborn to 2 (or so). I changed a bunch of diapers and it's a good thing that doesn't bother me. I played with the little critters and had a great time getting them to laugh and enjoy their time with us.
It was me and another girl. She was only 15 and had been doing it for two years so she showed me the ropes. If you're wondering why she wasn't in school it's because she is home schooled. I told her that I felt she should get some kind of school credit for taking care of kids like she does.
I had such a great time. I can hardly wait until next week. I didn't have as hard of a time getting the girls out the door as I feared and they even looked cute.
Sadie did well with the other kids. She had one period where she was a little jealous and came over to me crying and doing this throatal scream thing she does. I was holding another little boy who was crying because his mom had left him. He calmed down and Sadie did too.
Steff only had one stint where she was naughty and all I had to do was go over and talk with her and let her know that throwing toys was unacceptable behavior and she quickly started to cooperate and help clean up the toys with the rest of the kids. I was told she asked one of the ladies to take her to the rest room, she didn't do anything but she asked to go. I guess that's a start, maybe she'll see all the other kids use the restroom and decide she wants to be a big girl too.
Well that was the excitement for today, I hope you all are having a blessed day and feel your best. God bless each of you...
