Ryan and I have been called to teach Primary in our ward. Since we moved to the family ward, we sort of expected primary or nursery, because that's where all newlyweds seem to end up. But we are thankful for the opportunity to get to hang out with kids during church instead of adults, after all, kids are so much more fun. Haha. They put us in as team teachers of the 5 & 6 year-olds. It is nice being able to prepare for our lesson together and that Ryan and I get to teach together each week. I love watching Ryan interact with the kids. He does a great job and I know he's going to be a great Dad someday. Every week after church we are both exhausted, keeping up with the kids and keeping them in order for 2 hours is a lot of work. High 5 to all the Mom's out there that chase their kids around all day every day. We love our cute kids- there are 6 of them (5 boys and 1 girl). Here are a few things we have learned about 5-year-olds since we have been teaching them:
1. They are honest. We know things their parents probably don't want us to know about them.
2. They are smart. You may think they aren't listening, but they are.
3. They love Jesus.
4. They love to color
5. 1 hour of class is a long time to sit still. In fact, the picture above doesn't represent our class quite right, its more like this:
