On Saturday, Kadiatou came to watch the kids so that we could go on a date! We went to the Cheesecake factory. I tried the garlic noodles and they were really good. Then we went and watched the movie Gran Torino. I wasn't too sure about it, but I have picked the movies that we have seen lately, so I told JD to pick. It was actually a good movie. It was not what I expected.
We have a busy week coming up, so you may not hear much from me. It is my week to teach Joy School on Tuesday and Thursday. On Wednesday I have a Primary meeting and Saturday we are having a Primary Activity. The Donegan's will be going out of town on Wednesday, so we will have to take care of the dog and bird.
Sunday, I had to do sharing time and my primary lesson. Sharing Time went well, but during the second hour it did not! I have the kids from 4-8 and it is rough. Two are special need kids and they were shouting at each other yesterday. I'm glad that another sister and I are going to start rotating the primary lessons too. Hopefully, I've fixed the schedule that we won't have to do both sharing time and the lesson on the same day. It is just too much sometimes. In sharing time this week we had at least 20 kids! We filled every chair.

I know it's all relative,and I'm in Utah, but that's so funny to hear that you had 20 kids and filled every chair. We have 15 just in the Sunbeams! Our primary is too big for the primary room, so we had to comandeer the chapel from the priesthood! Good luck with your crazy week!
Sounds like you have your hands full. Good luck with it all, and I'm here if you need to vent! :) Miss you guys.
Sweet VDay! I'm glad it was a good one & that's great ya'll got to go out on a date! That's great!
What is your calling in Primary? Something that we have scheduled that works great in our primary is we invite special visitors to do sharing time. We combine Jr & Sr primary for these days so that the visitors just miss Sunday School. We have the missionaries, bishopric, RS, EQ, YW & YM come to do it. Our mouthly schedule is 2 weeks a member of the pres does it, one week is classes, the other week is the guest. The kids love new faces & listen much better, sometimes. It's just a suggestion. We love it.
Good luck!
