~all around the mulberry bush

welcome~
Reverence is an attitude of deep respect and love for Heavenly Father 
and Jesus Christ. It is much more than being quiet and sitting still during 
lesson, although our reverence is often evident in the way we act at 
church and in other sacred places. As we strive to become more reverent, 
we will feel the influence of the Holy Ghost more strongly in our lives.
 
Each Sunday (before Sacrament Meeting) we set up 3 of the 7 
stations of the Nursery (it's a little more like a junior primary class 
~18 mos to 6yr olds)! We do this early so that right when the children 
start gathering for a fun filled day . . . we. are. ready. !!!
   

 
 
Our "Welcome Song" is alway so fun! 
I'm not sure who gets more excited about it ~ me or the kids!!!
"Kobe, Kobe we're glad you're here today, Kobe, Kobe won't you stay and play?" 
I've been singing this Welcome Song since the first time I was in the nursery.  
(Kobe is my 15 year old(est) grandson)!
 
Our newest member of the Nursery is Sasha Evans - she is a Canadian Elementary School Teacher and we are lucky to have her in the nursery with us!

Anna paid me the highest compliment today!  After class her Mom, Michele, 
came up and said that Anna wouldn't leave the house until she got, "a headband like Sister Matthews'."  Is that not the sweetest thing in the whole wide world!?!   IT MADE MY DAY!
