Sunday School time again!

Sunday School has started for the kids again. Woohoo! And the girls are old enough to join a class of kids their age (16 3 to 4 year olds!).

And now that they've started Sunday School, that also means that we shouldn't be sending them to the nursery during church. So, we're making the adjustment to having 4 kids in the pew with us. The first Sunday, I packed an arsenal of crayons, color books and one big bag of Honeycombs. Well, they fought over the ONE bag of Honeycombs so much that we had to take the girls out of church for being too loud and fighting. The next Sunday, I downsized, big time! No food, no colors, no coloring books. The girls were allowed their purse with a bitty baby and hankerchief. Well, halfway through church we got out the purses and they had a fight over whose hankie was whose. And they were screaming! Seth grabbed Eliza and I grabbed Eden and out we went AGAIN! This Sunday, I downsized even more. No food, no crayons, no books, no purses, no hankies or babies. Simply a pen and the Children's bulletin and their $1 for offering. Seems this week they were getting along too well and creating a tickling scene. And this isn't even a detailing of the many trips to the potty! This too shall pass, right? Anyway, back to the Sunday School post.
Here's a quick photo of the girls getting acquainted in their classroom.
And the boys during their song time. Emmet's on the left and Ephraim's in the middle standing but falling (in the dark blue shirt and brown pants).
Singing!
Who's teaching? It's Seth! And he did a great job. He teaches large group to the preschool-2nd grade once a month. And I'll also be teaching once a month.
Outside church on September 12.

And new this year is that the kid will be singing in church everyother month. So, today, September 26, was their first time singing. They chose the familiar song of "This Little Light of Mine" but to a faster beat.
