Yesterday at church was rather entertaining, especially since Danny and I got to substitute teach in primary. We taught the 4-5 year olds, too cute. Those kids just had me cracking up during each meeting.
- During sacrament meeting the speaker was talking about the importance of reading our scriptures. The little boy behind us who is probably 3 whispered loudly to his dad, "Dad, don't we already know about this?" His dad responded, "Yes, we do." The little boy replied, "Then why is he talking about it if we already know?" Danny and I were cracking up.
- Then in sharing time, the primary leader was teaching the kids about what commandments are. She asked, "Who knows the name of the prophet who received the 10 Commandments from the Lord?" Little boy in our class excitedly raises his hand and answers, "Moses Smith!"
- This was a sweet moment. A little girl in our class while raising her hand accidentally hit the boy next to her. He (in a tattle tail voice) told me that she hit him. The little girl's response was, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." She then reached over and gave him a hug. He hugged her back and said, "It's ok, I forgive you." We can learn much from little kiddos.
- During class time, we taught them about having faith in Jesus Christ. We shared the story from The Bible when Jesus healed the blind man. The little boy giving the closing prayer was so tender. After praying for each member of his family, he said, "Please bless all the people that can't see and hear that they will be able to." So sweet.
Anyway, fun times in primary. In other news, I have been doing so well avoiding the flu and cold bugs that have been going around this winter. After spending all last week with many children at different photo shoots for work, I now have my first cold for the winter. I guess that is the downside of being around kids.
Primary is so entertaining! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I really miss teaching in primary. It was a lot of fun.
DeleteMoses Smith! I love it. I miss being in Primary! Kids are so honest, innocent, and sweet. Too bad they can't stay immune from germs that make them sick and the world's influences that take away that innocence.
ReplyDeleteI agree so much.
