Okay . . . it's only week 2, my first week "teaching" and already I'm very clearly seeing the reasons I stopped doing this in the first place. Ministry needs to fit like a glove, I know we all have to do things we don't enjoy along the way, but if you're truly unhappy in what you're doing for the Lord, it doesn't do anybody any good. Now I know there was a day when I did enjoy teaching Sunday School, but I don't think it's for me anymore. I'm going to stick it out, I have this next Sunday off and then the next Sunday the other teacher with me will be teaching, so maybe helping is my thing . . . but we'll see.
So I've started a list:
Top 10 Signs You Know You're Still Too Burnt Out to Teach Sunday School
* Here's #10: When a parent makes some rude comments about an incident involving their child the previous week being bitten by another child under your supervision, you would like to reply, "Well, you come in watch all these 3 year-olds and see if you can do a better job!" . . . but don't! Thank God, one of us has power over our tongue!
Ummmm . . . okay, when I get to #1 I know it's time to go. For now, I'll endure, bit my tongue and wipe snotty noses.

The biter was moved from Sis. Rodgers class because he was a biter and biting the smaller kids. I guess they thought the bigger kids would bite him back. YIKES!
