I was childcare helper for church in the 3/4 year old classroom. My class the 3/4 lead teacher did not show and the 2 year room, which is adjacent, the teacher did not show either, so we combined and had 17 energetic kids. That was way too many for two adults. Remember we are talking about ages 2 to 4. When one teacher was changing a diaper and a little girl told me she needed to go potty bad, I knew we were in trouble. I ended up pulling my 3 kids out of the service to help in the class. It was a zoo in the class with that many kids. They were busy playing and all over the room. One of the two year olds' favorite thing to do was to hit everyone or grab their toys out of their hand or throw toys at them. It was an interesting time. I am trying to do my part and serve, but sometimes it isn't easy.
In the afternoon Ali had a wedding planning day with both grandparents, Blake's mom and grandma, Anderlik's and Ferrari's,and my mom all came to help. We went over a lot of details. Ali didn't have any ideas going into the planning and listened to suggestions and planned from that. Karen made dinner for everyone.
Because they had dentist appointments in Ogden the next day, Rylie and Jaynie came and spent the night. I was so glad they could come, it had been a very long time. Jake and Rylie haven't even spoken in a year. Not that they purposely avoided one another or were mad at each other, I think it had just been so long. Rylie is always with one of his sisters boyfriends, so he rarely talked to Jake. Their time was short, but I let them stay up until midnight and I think they really had a good time. I hope they can do more together in the future. I always tell the kids, friends will come and go, but family is forever.
