Sunday in the toddler room, there were only two kids! Wooh, it was so rough! The three of us in there could barely handle it! Anyways, during the story, I asked them if they knew how much Jesus loved them. Joshua said, "I love baby Jesus this much!" and he opened up his arms as far as he could. Then Savanna said, "I love baby Jesus this much!" and then she opened her arms up as far as she could. They continued to repeat this taking turns. It was almost as if they were fighting over who loves baby Jesus more! It was so precious. It's so awesome to see how kids show their love to God.

That was a completely different situation than when I watched 15 1-4 year olds on the 12th. Cela watched 13 5-12 year olds, and she had it just as bad. We were essentially on our own because we divided up the kids. I truly could barely handle it! Yet, I don't know how I would have been able to without the older kids that love to help - Katelyn, Jennah, Isaiah, Adi, and Katarina. They wet paper towels and toilet paper to make wipes. They did all they could to help. Once again, they each wanted a turn to make a wipes for me - I could never say I had enough - until each of them made me one. Poor babies (Annah, Melissa, and Eliana) that had to suffer through so many cold wipes everytime their diaper was changed!

Praise You Lord for giving gifts to Your children and using people of such young ages to bless me and help me. They are awesome and it is so evident that each of them are wonderfully and perfectly made!
