Jennifer's Thoughts

hi there, this is jennifer and i wanted to tell you about vbs.
now, everyone says vbs is fun, and mommy signed me up. she wanted to teach the big kids about Jesus. i don't understand why, they are big and have heard about Jesus. she needs to teach me! at home! have i mentioned I LOVE MOMMY!? i want to spend all my time with her.

well, the 1st day, i cried a little when she left...it makes her feel loved. don't tell her, but i actually have fun in the nursery while she is gone! anyway, i figured if i was good during the day and was happy to see her when she came back, mommy wouldn't leave me the next day. boy.was.i.wrong.
i had to step it up! so, the 2nd day, i choked on 2 goldfish...maybe if she saw my life was in danger, she would stay home and play with me! no, mommy still brought me back.
well, on the 3rd day, i decided to really get her attention by eating my hair tie. alas, even this wasn't horrible enough to keep mommy at home!
since physical pain wasn't phasing mommy, i had to fight dirty and go for emotional pain. so the last 2 days, i cried really hard when she left and fussed when she picked me up. i knew i had to be subtle and wear her down slowly. oh, and i was having lots of fun, so i secretly wanted to go back.
well, my plan worked! on sunday, mommy didn't leave me in the nursery. in fact, she played with me and even got daddy to come and play, too!

oh, while i was secretly having fun, i made fun crafts, played with my friends, ate yummy food, and even napped! i learned how to say, "fooey," and i got to ride to and from church with my friend rachel everyday! well, mommy and i are going to go to the library now.
