Alicia's New Calling....

Sometimes I think the lord has such a great sense of humor when it comes to me. Sunday I was called to be the SUNBEAM teacher... yup Hunter's new teacher. Now... that sounds pretty dang cool huh... and then they told me there were 8 sunbeams count them 8 little 3 yr olds. Can you imagine!?!? I taught for the first time on Sunday and the kids and I did great(Steve came in and helped out) They are going to get me an assistant so we can tag team. It is amazing how smart and intune with the spirit they are. They are so eager to learn and hear stories and the coloring is a hit also. I wanted to be able to find ways to teach Hunter better when it came to church things and now this gives me the opportunity. I'm pretty excited about the calling and i'm greatful the lord has blessed me and trust me with these precious little children. The bonus for the calling is working with all the amazing woman! What great examples they are to me and seeing there dedication to the lord and the children gives me an added lift at the end of church. The lord does know what is best for me in my life and time line.

I am so excited for you! I had the Sunbeams for 2 1/2 years and loved every minute of it! Hands down, my favorite calling!

Love it! Alicia you are so perfect for teaching the sunbeams. Too bad we've moved away and our little ones can't be together as sunbeams with you as the teacher. They are so blessed to have you!
