3 is the magic number

What an amazing week. As it comes to an end, ive just learned so much. On sunday i was really dreading doing VBS for a whole week, and now its actually almost over! i cant believe it, and i loved every second of it. After 3 years of doing VBS this year was definatly my favorite. I loved being in a classroom and teaching the kids, and building a relationship with them. I love children cause they are so forgiving. Its almost unbelieveable, i really want to be like them. This one boy, brandon, is crazy insane and he literally bounces off walls, jumps off tables and just in general doesnt listen. We've yelled at him and everything! Yet at the end of the day he always seems to give me a hug or smiles and tells me he will see me tomorrow. Children are just so willing to learn, and want to know everything! Thats why they always ask "Why?"

In the book of Matthew, Jesus talks about rank in heaven, the disciples ask who is going to be the best? Jesus says people who are most like the children. Why? because of their humility and faith. Children are so humble. They really have no sense of pride at all. They dont mind being silly cause its just so much fun! They dont really care if they dont know you, they will be themselves and make themselves look stupid cause they dont care! They dont mind leaping into your arms when you tell them to jump because they know you are going to catch them. Its amazing really. They do things without question..I love childrens honesty also, its so funny. They dont mind being honest cause they dont mind getting embarrassed.

i loved tonight and how Aimee, a 5 year old girl who isnt even in my class came up to me and sat next to me and started talking about why there are different languages in the world, and how that happened? Then we started talking about hair, and her family. Its stuff like that, that only happens when a child is there, and i love every second of it.



can you guess which one brandon is?






......His love is boundless
