A Good Reminder

This week was FCC's Summer Impact Program. I was asked to be the "figurehead" of VBS. Being a water theme, I have become Lily the Lifeguard. From my pigtailed head to Sammy the Seal around my waist I have become a new character in the eyes of the kids. It's been a really good time. I also told the kids a secret about Lily, she can't swim. So all week I've gotten tips from the kids on how to swim in hopes to learn by Friday when they have a pool party. I've gotten some pretty good lines this week from our little VBSers!

"You're not really Lily. You're Kenzie. You're playing a character just like you played Belle. But don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"I know you can swim. You taught me how to swim!"

"The pool would never hire you if you couldn't swim. The church only hired you because there isn't a pool here. Didn't you think about that when you agreed to take the job?"

"You don't have to worry at the pool party. I don't think any of us could throw you in the pool!"

It's been lots of fun. And it's a good reminder of how much I love kids and how excited I am to be able to work with them everyday!
