teaching
hugging little kids
throwing dead frogs away
after picking them up out of the office bathroom
being completely ridiculous
eating lots of nutella and sour gummy worms
reading large books
praising jesus
knowing the answer to questions like "what's the number for child support"
or, sometimes, just flat not knowing the answer to questions like "what's the number for child support"
playing with hula hoops, parachutes, and a very large rubber inflatable ball
praying for dead, dying, and not-yet-living dogs, cats, and other assorted pets
knowing why the sky is blue, why rainbows appear, and what jesus was like when he was six
always being 'teacher' no matter where i am
knowing prayer is the first resort for any problem
always being ready to give a hug, even in the middle of walmart
being willing to be silly
and, more often than not, actually being silly
juggling visuals, cds, kids, and more games than i care to think about
singing ridiculous songs at the top of my lungs because they are cool, darnit
remembering that jesus is the reason for everything
and above all
investing in the lives of everyone i meet, for jesus' sake
