{Shenanigans}

Summer is an odd time, isn't it?
I don't know about you, but I feel that I spend my whole school year looking forward to summer break, and then summer break looking forward to the school year..... I know, it sounds crazy, even to me.
Much isn't going on with my life. I'm just watching it fly by. But. I do have a few funny moments that have happened to me in the past week. 
For those of you that do not know, I am a Primary Teacher. I teach the 9 year olds.
I must begin by saying {and I'll ask for forgiveness beforehand} that I have not been a huge fan of being a primary teacher. I think this began because I felt that I wasn't "called of God" to that calling, because every young single adult in a home ward gets that calling. But now I will say, {this will require no forgiveness} that I love it!
My nine year olds are a hoot and a half. Seriously. They say the darndest things. For example, My mother {we partner teach} was telling a story about how her tomato plants died. And Kaden said "they were froze by ghosts!" hahaha. Then after the story was over he said "Moral of the story, Ghost freeze things, and bananas are good"
Where do they come up with this stuff???
Anyway. In singing time, they had all of the female teachers come up {For mothers day} and each of their class members would ask a question, and then they would ask what your favorite primary song was and the whole room would sing it. The singing time leader, Marla, is my next-door neighbor. So when I came up she asked the primary kids "Now, is Sister Miller a mother?" and amongst all of the "no's" this one voice could be heard that said "Well, Possibly" HAHAHAHAHA! Seriously! Where do they come up with this stuff???

Anyway. Those were the funny things. 
Today in institute the teacher asked us "If you could describe your trust in the Lord as a symbol, what would it be"
That is my question for you today.
This was my answer.
Mine is like a boomerang. 
I hold it dear to me, but sometimes I feel that I can handle a situation on my own, so I throw the boomerang, but it always comes back to me.

Anyways. Have a good day! 
Until Next Time

Peace & Blessings! :)
