Big Sis, LIttle Sis

Hey all,
I'm so excited that I am able to do the Big Sis, Little Sis program. I just met my Little Sis last Saturday. I think we were both so excited! I told her I needed a photo so I could scrap it to give to her. We are supposed to go ride go carts tomorrow...whoo hooo! Of course, I have to take my camera (those who know me well know I take it everywhere). In a few weeks the group as a whole will be meeting to do paper scrapbooking, so I'll need some photos for that. Imagine, me, paper scrapping. But she will have two layouts for a nice memory book of our time together.



I was so saddened a month or so ago when I found I could not teach Sunday School this quarter. I've been teaching Sunday School now for 25 years. Can you believe it? I cannot! But it is such a part of me. I receive so much from the children. They have blessed me so much over the years. However, someone was forcing me to use materials I did not want to use which were not my teaching style, so I had to quit for a bit. I hope to return to it maybe next year. We'll see.


So, I was saddened at the decision not to teach, but I decided I would just raise my head up and move forward. Certainly there is more than one way to get that fullfullment that I got through teaching, right? And this is it. I signed up to be a Big Sis.


I'm excited about this new avenue in life. God gave me three boys and now I've got a girl to love. Maybe we need each other, huh? Time will tell.


So, as I've been doing, I've a question for you so that you can have a reason to comment.....so, what do you do that gives you this kind of fulfillment?

First can I say not that I can't believe that the praying mantis was on the car, but that you took a pic of it!LOL

My volunteer work is being a girl scout troop leader, we have 27 wonderful girls. Doing Mothers Day Out each week, having this program is such a blessing for many moms, working in the nursery at church each Sunday, and last PTG but had to step back and not have as active as a role as in previous years. Keeps me involved in the school though.
