These, my dear friends...


are the faces of YOUTH DIRECTORS!!!! hehehe

Last night after church, the preacher was making announcements and said he needed to see Bro. S and Bro. M in his office after Bible study. I was thinking how I was going to mess with those two after we dismissed about how they had to go to the "principal's office" and no sooner had I thought that did the preacher say, "Oh and Roz I need to see you too." What?!?!?! So immediately I think this has something to do with sharing my class and I'm pretty sure that my plan of letting the other sister have Sun mornings is about to get tossed. (I was preparing myself to hear, "Oh Sis Roz, that is not how we share...")
So all 3 of us head to the minister's office and then he says he wants to see us one at a time. So I go first, I close the door and I'm about to begin my defense when he says, "So I would like to ask if you and KJ would be the church's Youth Directors?" Uhh, waaa? Let's just say I'm pretty sure the minister was surprised to see that my cheeks could indeed touch my temples. YEA!!!! We're a small church family, but basically KJ and I are responsible for coming up with stuff for the kids to do and keeping them active and hopefully out of trouble. I've got a ton of ideas, but I'm trying to figure out the best way to get started...

So on the way home I'm saying to myself over and over, I'm a youth director, I'm a youth director, and then it hits me. Yep... they figured out one of the few things to do to make me momentarily stop my active plan of heading back across the state line. Egads! Pulling into our subdivision the woman whose house I'm stalking had her front door open (again) and I thought, "hummm, she's got some great interior stuff going on. I wonder if those plants are real... I should probably stop and introduce myself as Roz, the church youth director who lives down the street." No worries, I didn't stop by the unknown neighbor's to share my sheer joy, but if her door is open tonight, beckoning to me with her fancy light fixtures and unique wall art, then... I make no promises...

Happy Thursday all!

I agree with Colleen and Liz, you can be a youth director in Huntsville or even Madison. Just work on getting home, we miss you guys.

So because you have 4 requests that means that you absolutely have to come back.

Congrats on your new position. I know you all will be great.
