I am still very young.
Today Kate and I worked in the nursery at church, we had like 12 little boys. All babies and 2-4 year olds. they were REALLY wild and two of them clung to my legs the whole time and were determined to make me tip over. Yea they were crazy but it was fun. I would rather play with little kids than do grown up things anyday.
After church we went over to Melissa's baby shower. I really love those lady-like baby shower parties...where all the ladies are dressed all cute and they eat salads and drink tea and they are all so polite and sharing these fun storeies, and playing games and opening the baby presents and saying appropriate things like "oh wow those are really useful" "oh wow you can never have too many of those". I really do love these parties...but I can only stand them for so long, cuz as I said...i'm too young to truly take part in them yet.
AFter a while Katie and I jumped over the deck of the babyshower and played on the trampoline with all the mother's babies and kids. This baby Robbe, LOVES the tampoline, he just giggles insanely when you bounce him. we enjoyed playing with the little kids who knew they were too young for the babyshower more than we did making small talk ABOUT babies and the joy of kids with the ladies at the party. I love my youth, but I want the adult things like my own kids. I will be the happiest mother in the WORLD when the time comes.

Hung out at the shireks for a while, got some pizza hut and all that jazz and went to youthgroup leader meeting, we got new small groups. I love my new group! I think we are just gonna click. My last group was spastic, lol they always got horribly off subject and...well ya'll know me, I cant just grab my guts and tell them all to shut up like I should be able to. But I have high hopes for my new group...yea, they will go well.
At YG we played monkey ball for a while...lol my feet are NASTY right now. I cant run in the flats I was wearing so I played the game ( kinda like soccer, except you cant use your feet to kick the ball, you have to bat it with your hands kinda?) barefoot. My feet are so grass stained and muddy. I took a couple of balls to the face too...annndd I have more grass stains on my jeans than I know what to do with. Thats how you know you have a good game.
TThhheeennn we all layed around in the grass...Jeff read scriptures to us and we discussed things while soaking up the sun and rolling around in the grass. It was bliss. Later, Collin broke out the guitar and we sang worship songs. Stephanie said she will try to come with us next week, that would be amazing...I know she would grow to love it.
