Sunday

I'm baking some yummy chocolate chip cookies. My favourite recipe is a copy of Mrs. Field's chocolate chip cookie recipe. When I lived in Toronto, I used to frequent her cookie stand. They are soo good.

I'd post a picture of the finished cookies, but while looking for my camera I realized that my husband and son took it with them to their hockey game. (Maybe it's better that I don't post a picture...you'd be over here eating them up on me. - They are pretty tasty.)

Since my husband (the Children's Pastor) was away this morning. Jodie and I were left in charge of the children's ministry. Let's just say that we ended before Pastor did this morning.

Jodie was beginning to close his lesson and I checked my watch. 11:25. Okay, still a couple of more things to do, so we should be good.

We completed our lesson and everything that would normally entail. My watch now read 11:45. Good. Church is supposed to end at 11:45. I ended in prayer and then opened the doors and wished all of the kids a good week. (Our service ministers to 6-12 year olds and is in the same building as the adult service. This age group is not required to be picked up by their parents.)

Within a couple of milliseconds, Mr. Usher came down the hall. He was smiling, but a trifle concerned that we were not able to tell time. I smiled as soon as I saw him. I knew that he wasn't coming down the hall just to say 'hello'.

Pastor's service was finished a good 20-25 minutes after ours. I'm sure that next week, when pastor hubby is back, our children's service will end at the same time that Pastor's service does. This way my husband can feel appreciated and that we are not vying for his job when he isn't there.

P.S.
I was kidding about not sharing my cookies. Feel free to pop over. I've got plenty. Mmmm.
