Tomorrow is the first Sunday of the month and that means that it is my turn to do sharing time. It is fun to get up in front of the children and teach them but my ideas have been on the thin side. The Primary Outline gives ideas for each Sunday of the week. I am going to use the idea from the outline for tomorrow. Week 1 theme: Adam and Eve were the first family. I am tweeking it just a bit by finding an item or something to symbolize the different words on the wordstrips...eg. marriage--wedding ring. I have gathered almost everything except the wedding ring.I am in my bathroom, frantically trying to take off my wedding ring. It's been a very long time since I took it off. Maybe two babies ago. Maybe this prop idea wasn't such a good one! When I am pregnant my hand swell up and there is still a lot of swelling at least I like to think so. I am using soap & water, and twisting it till my finger is white and purple and feels like my finger is going to come off with the ring.
Gary comes in and asks what I am doing?
I'm trying to take off my wedding ring!
He says, "Once you take it off you won't be able to put it back on again."
My fingers are still on the chubby side but you underestimate me honey!...I need it for my sharing time tomorrow! It's coming off but only for a few hours. Yes, I am going to use my Engagement Ring as a prop. (I couldn't handle taking off both rings, it hurt too much.) Let's pray I don't loose it.
