I'm sooo pumped!

Okay, if you know me, you would know that it doesn't take much for me to get excited about things. But today, I am really excited. First off, my friend Jill, did this beautiful blog design for me. I realized that I have been staring at the same template almost 3 years on my blog! WOW! So, Jill did this great make-over and I just love it. She did it just like I wanted it and better!! You have to check out her other stuff and if you have something else in mind, I know she can do it....she is a talented friend!

This is what I'm REALLY pumped about. Not that I'm not about my new blog design, but I just came from the church building and I'm sooo excited! We have just been up to our ears in the nursery at church the past few months. Parker's bible class (18-24 months) had 17 kids in there on Sunday! That is a LOT of kids!! What a great problem!! I love it, a growing church! A whole new generation of children that we can teach about Jesus. So, we are splitting up that class in 2 weeks. That solves that problem in bible class, but the nursery is still just crazy. So, I just went up to church this morning and talked to our children's minister, Kipi, and she made it happen. Poof! She made some calls, talked to some people and starting THIS coming Sunday, we will have 2 nurserys. One for the older babies (the walkers, 18-36 months) and then one for the babies. So, now we just have to find people who are willing to serve. I'm excited about all the growth that we are having. I'm so thankful that we have a staff at our church that can help us problem solve and do it quickly!!

Hey! Yea for you! That's great news and great initiative by you!

Love your new blog. Mine looks "blah" now. I need to contact our friend, too! Of course, I should probably start writing again for that to make sense.

We have 2 nurseries at our church. It really helps the babies from not being run over by the toddlers. I am sure you can find some women who will just love holding little babies on Sunday mornings.

I'm glad you love your new blog design! I love how it turned out!

That's great that there will be 2 separate places for the older ones & the younger ones! Way to get that rolling!

In some congregations in the south, donkey years ago, there was PAID staff in the nursery. Can you imagine? That's like being paid to eat chocolate. What a job!

I must say that your new blog design looks awesome. You must have an extremely talented friend. I wish I knew someone that could redesign my blog.
