And then, alas, I was a Wiggle no more.
Vacation Bible School ended on Friday night after six nights of screaming, dancing and high-fiving kids learning about Jesus. Someone got the idea to ask me to be the announcement guy, which ultimately meant standing up on stage in a shirt I thankfully will never need wear again while exciting the children. It was amazing to see all those kids, and now I truly know what it must be to have been a Wiggle.
What impressed me most about the week, though, was the incredible talent in our church. I was mesmerized by the story Laura Bott told to 20 three-year-olds as much as I was the fact that anyone could contain said group of three-year-olds for an entire story time. I was amazed at the energy Amanda Scott put into, well, everything Amanda Scott does. Being the technical infant that I am, I was even impressed when Nikki Godfrey-Hill fashioned up the most popular Power Point slide at a moment's notice.
The whole week made me feel pretty good about that whole taking a village to raise a child thing. We sure have some kind of village going, even if the wardrobe still needs a little work.

You were awesome! And I think you are right, that is probably the closest we will ever become to being a Wiggle- I think the Wiggles have better outfits than Ms. Haveafit and Mr. Lost & Found Guy.
You are so right - what a blessing to be in that village - we wiki-wiki-ed here but i am sure we had nothing on ya'll! Blessings.
No problem Mr. Lost & Found, anytime!!
ALOHA!!!
The 'Rigger's still turning, eh? Did you think back to that summer of '01 at all?
You can never think back to something so indelibly printed on your brain as that summer. By the way, I ate at the birthplace of "Twohoy" this weekend.
