In the circles I move in, you always hear these kinds of stories:

Once a bishop; now a primary teacher.

Once a member of the high council; now a councillor in the ward young men's organization.

Once a Relief Society President; now called as a Den Leader.

But until this week, I had never really seen this in real life.

Ahem:

Once an Elder's Quorum President; now a Nursery Aide.

There are apparently enough kids in our nursery to warrant two classes-- the one I'll be aiding is completely manned by. . . well, men. [Smile]

I'm looking forward to it, but I'm also a little apprehensive. Litebrite will be in there, so I'll have someone to comfort me, at least. . .

We'll see how this goes. My impression is that there hasn't been much structure to the kids' nursery for a while. . .

Um, it's a kid's nursery. Not much structure isn't necessarily a bad thing.

That said, congratulations on your new call. [Smile]

These are MORMON kids, El Jay. If we don't hammer structure and conformity into them now, they'll forget their place.

And then what will I eat?

I've worked in the nursery before. With three kids, it's bound to happen, every now and then. I kind of have an idea how I want things to go, and how they should go; I'm just a little nervous is all.

And honestly, I'm not nervous about the children. I'm nervous about working with other guys. I barely know the other two men who will be in the nursery with me; and maybe that's a good thing.

We'll see.

But what about how things probably will go?

Torture and confusion at first, then settling down to an uneasy routine, then eventual enjoyment.
