what a bittersweet day :s

So today was church.
I cried a little on the inside. won't lie. All my little nursery babies are growing up. too fast if you ask me! Besides the fact that our nursery has DOUBLED in size in the last 6 months , when our original class size for the year was 5. Thank goodness for people moving in. We now have 10 kids , but the ratio of girls to boys is still the same. 8:2 when nursery started the ratio was 4:1. these boys will have good pickings when they're 16 ! The many ways of my kids growing up are crazy. 3 of them are already way too mature for nursery. all 3 can spell their names and hold a REAL conversation with you. Me and the other nursery leader just giggle. those 3 will be going to sunbeams next year. We'll have the rest for another year or 2. The 2 year olds are finally learning to talk and are able to understand when you tell them things. Today clean up went so well. We've organized all the toys and we'll lay out the buckets and point to a bucket and say put the cars away in this bucket. They'll do it! then we'll tell them what cabinent to put the bucket in and they'll pick up the bucket and take put it in that cabinent.!! I'm so proud of them. The biggest improvement though is they Finally sing in nursery singing time!! the youngest ones at 18 and 23 months catch on really quickly and will at least go pick up the objects for song even though they dont sing yet. I'm so happy for them , I love watching them learn things and see things just click and make sense to them, but i'm going to miss them. My little angels. :)
