Teaching Primary

We have been teaching primary for the past 1 1/2 years and it really is so much fun! They're not always the most reverent and I can't say that it is always as easy as it sounds, but they are so cute and say the darnest things. This Sunday in sharing time they were talking about the hard work that mom and dads do in the home. They asked the primary kids what would happen if their mom decided not to cook, clean or take them to various activities. One of our kids in our class yelled out that "HE WOULD DIE!" I wonder if his mom knows how much he cares about what she does. Every week we come home with a smile on our face because of something one of our 7 year olds said.

Fun in the Kitchen

Well, definitely not fun...our upstairs neighbors did laundry which has never been a problem in the past, but the pipes got clogged and oh, the mess! We got home last Friday from work and there was water all over our kitchen floor. It had overflowed from our sink and made a detergent smelling pool of water. We mopped up about 20 gallons of water off our floor and have been working on bleaching everything in our kitchen...floor, kitchen utensils, kitchen rags, etc. Ironically, I am doing a presentation for my epidemiology class on cholera, which happens to be spread through eating food or drinking water that is contaminated with sewage...definitely, makes me motivated to be obsessed with making sure the kitchen has been completely disinfected!
