A couple weeks ago, we had a special service at our church. Usually, the kids would go into their own class or kids church, but my husband felt strongly about allowing the usual kids leaders time to be with the other adults for this special service, so guess who was volunteered to be with the kids? Actually, I'm not even sure if my husband volunteered me, or if I volunteered myself, or if it was just understood that I would do it... it just happened, and I was totally ok with it. At least until the day before the midweek service. I knew what I'd be teaching on, I had my outline, my game, an activity, a back-up activity in case I needed it, AND a song to start out with. But despite all that, I started getting soooooo anxious about it. It has been YEARS since I've taught littles at church. I was a youth leader by myself for a while about ten years ago....before that I taught a Sunday...
