So many exciting things happened in church aside from my two favorite parts (the Eucharist and the Peace, obviously). Two babies were baptized, I am now a Eucharistic Assistant, and a stained glass window was blessed and dedicated to the late Bishop David. Everything went very smoothly. I held Sharron's prayer book while she was baptizing the kids, so I got a great view of the facial expressions of the kids as the water was poured over their heads.
After church, I had my first driving lesson on a real road! MJ has a few gray hairs, but other than that, I'm chalking it up as a successful lesson. I do have a hard time remembering which side of the road to go to when I'm turning. Oops.
I arrived at Kwasa this morning at 7:45am and stayed there all day. It was a lot of fun. The kids are learning about traffic rules, so I taught them the game "Red Light! Green Light!".
After care was difficult because I was the only adult for most of the afternoon. I'm learning the necessity of a "teacher voice". They tend to listen to that voice more than the "I'm-being-really-nice-and-friendly" voice. I also implemented a reward system. If the class gets five stars, I'll give them a prize. You may say "bribery" but I say "peace and quiet".
