Don\u2019t you just love big brown or blue eyes looking trustingly at you?\u00a0 And what about little arms reaching out and wanting up to feel safe?\u00a0 Or holding those soft pudgy hands as you guide their little footsteps in learning to walk?\u00a0 And you can\u2019t help but feel all warm inside when you bottle feed a wee one right before he falls off to sleep, right?<\/p>\n

Being at the Bible school these past six months have definitely been a change for Jared and me. \u00a0We floundered a bit in the beginning weeks.\u00a0 We felt so out of our comfort zone but the staff here has been great encouragers. \u00a0Jared has found his niche on the maintenance team and I have learned to love and enjoy those little ones in the childcare department.\u00a0 As we look back we can say that it has been good and even needful.<\/p>\n

\"Waukesha<\/a>But, as the new semester starts, there is another change coming our way. \u00a0Jared will remain on the maintenance team but I have been asked to move into the Education Office.\u00a0 There will be a lot of new office procedures that I will learn but the real plus to this change will be the interaction with the students.\u00a0 Children are an avenue in building relationships and I will miss these little people, but am so thankful for how God has used them in my life.<\/p>\n

So, as I face this change what differences am I going to see between babies, toddlers, pre-schoolers, and college students?\u00a0 I\u2019m sure there will plenty of differences but what I expect is that no matter what the age \u201ckids\u201d love to be noticed, to have our complete attention as they speak to us, and to know that we are truly interested in what is happening in their lives.\u00a0 God is going to stretch me but I am truly excited about having a part in their lives and them in mine.\u00a0 And \u2026 I hear that the students love the fact that there is a bowl in the office that daily gets filled with candy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
