After reading your post I am sad I got released. There is much to learn from 18 month olds and especially from 2 year olds who scream that's Jesus when they see his picture. If only I was that excited when I saw his picture.Brandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04799452298248015251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-91068899778076924042010-04-01T15:27:49.083-06:002010-04-01T15:27:49.083-06:00I love that you take nursery seriously.

It's true many parents look at it as on-site daycare, but some of the nursery leaders do too, which leads to a very chaotic couple of hours.<br /><br />And the end of your post was spot on: we all need to complete the incomplete sentence "I'm sorry..." Then it shows you truly are sorry for whatever it is you did or didn't do. Finishing it off with soggy goldfish crackers just sweetens the deal!<br /><br />By the way, we have Sacrament meeting LAST. Let me tell you how much fun it is to try to get your kids to sit reverently after two hours of Primary!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12394453668517249660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-77077056664397901872010-04-01T12:11:17.300-06:002010-04-01T12:11:17.300-06:00That last sentence says it all.

Those lessons would be good to review in some of the adult classes, I think. We just need reminding.Gerbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13103247512887532095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-82538272542168445252010-04-01T11:51:17.384-06:002010-04-01T11:51:17.384-06:00That was great.

My 5yo suddenly starts crying out of the blue and I'll say in a low, very drawn out voice, "Caitlyyynnn". Silence. "Caitlyyyynnn". Then she'll look at her sister with a sly grin and mutter "sorry". <br /><br />Very cool post! We can definitely learn a lot from a toddler. And I'm glad to hear your perspective on the nursery calling. It's one I hold in high regard out of any other calling in the Church!Camillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809109574604262862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-6319530239327905872010-04-01T10:53:05.120-06:002010-04-01T10:53:05.120-06:00I love structured nursery.

Those lessons are good for not only our 3 year old, but also the 7 & 5 year old.<br /><br />On saying "I'm sorry I....." and taking responsibility we had an Enrichment on healthy relationships (taught by the stake "Improving Marriages" teachers) and two major themes were taking responsibility for our actions and apologizing. It was fantastic. Our sisters want them to come teach it to the men also.cabeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11331933729883582763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-52544572531733626182010-04-01T09:50:30.094-06:002010-04-01T09:50:30.094-06:00It takes a lot of humility to say sorry for someth...It takes a lot of humility to say sorry for something you did. I guess that's why we're supposed to learn how to do it starting at age 2. I have also found that the lessons are always applicable to me when I teach my Sunbeam class. Thanks for the thoughts. Miss you all!!!! And good luck at the conference!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16999853825988610302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13871850.post-68661060704018661732010-04-01T09:43:10.431-06:002010-04-01T09:43:10.431-06:00Its amazing how those words can go a long way in m...Its amazing how those words can go a long way in making a situation better.
