I visited friends in Kansas City this weekend. I'm friends with two couples that I knew in college before they got married. They are twin brothers and I know them as well as both of their wives. One of them has twin girls (a twin who has twins, and I am a twin, it's like a twin gathering when I go up... Except my twin isn't there. ANYWAY), a little over a year old. When I got there, the babies were all asleep so we talked.
It was then that the other couple told me that they were pregnant. I was so. Stinking. Excited. I'm very excitable anyway but big announcements like that.... I just go all out. But, I had to be quiet because of the sleeping children!!! So I was silently screaming, fanning myself, rocking in my chair and waving my arms around. "Are you serious? Ahhhh are you serious?! Ahhhhh!! Yasssss I'm so happy for you!!!"
If you have ever seen Kristin WIG'S SNL Surprise Party skit... That's how I felt/acted.
I'm super excited for them. And slightly worried at how I will handle myself when I am married and find out I am pregnant.

Hey everyone - I am planning to volunteer as a Sunday School teacher at my church and also for VBS (Vacation Bible School).
I am so excited about this prospect of working with children and discussing God with them.
I strongly believe that our childhood experiences with God shape us and is something we hold on to in times of deep trouble. It's like the parable of the sower - the seeds that sprout deep roots...
It can happen during childhood.
Also, Jesus always said "Let the little children come to me." Their angels in heaven are always before God.
I am hoping that I get such an opportunity to be with them!
If any of you are/were volunteers with children at Sunday School or any such program - it would be nice to share those experiences....
PS - I think I'll make a thread instead

You!!!
It's been a while Mister! How are you? Were you snowed in?
I've been around, though not much here on CC. I am enjoying the weather at my country. It's almost summer here and just chilling out with friends
PS - I think the chatrooms require Adobe flashplayer.
D

I have also been following what's happening in my country - both politically as well as socially.
The state of affairs for women here is quite dismal and the release of the documentary by BBC on Nirbhaya- Delhi 2012 rape incident (which was banned in India but I watched it anyway) has opened a can of worms.
It truly shows what our culture and attitude is towards women.
Unlike before, when something would be enough to shake me, I am viewing all of this in a positive manner with God at my side. I know very well how God has protected me and I trust HIM to always be with me.
I do not think that India is the worst country out there but our society definitely needs a shift to mandate a change in our perceptions.
I like writing about these issues on one of my blogs. Not as a means to remonstrate what is already wrong but in a way cathartic to me that I have a say in things.
Having experiences with leadership and the processes of being elected, I do think I understand the burden that comes from shouldering such responsibilities.
Also, sometimes the change we wish to perceive outside of us must first begin inside.
Though I think politics is inherently dirty - it's powerful. I may consider dropping my hat in that ring in the future.

When I started teaching children's church I was a bit dubious. How could I get a bunch of kids to listen to anything I had to say? But I actually found I was having fun with it.
In local news, last time I was at Aldi I picked up a jar of mixed nuts (cashews, hazelnuts, almonds, brazil nuts, pecans) with the intent to take them to work today. So this morning I saw the jar and set it out beside the computer so I would remember to take it to work. Then I started eating... now the jar has very few brazil nuts, and they're all on the bottom where I can't easily reach them (which is why they are still in there.)
As long as nobody at work reads the label and notices there are supposed to be brazil nuts in the mix I should be alright. Hmm, maybe I could get this label off...
