Question:

Why volunteer to do something if you're not going to do it?

This being Sunday, the younglings and I went to church (Husband had to work). Daughter can never sit through all the music (and there's a lot, trust me) so she's gotten in the habit of going off to the nursery half way through all the singing. Once I had the person sitting in front of us (who's babysat the kids before) say she'd keep an eye on Son til it was time for children's church, I took Daughter to the nursery.

And remained there throughout the rest of the service!

Apparently the person who was supposed to be in the nursery today didn't read the bulletin, or they would have seen their name.

I didn't mind, as it was only Daughter and two other kids (even though Daughter was such a brat today), but when one of the kids had to go to the bathroom I started to panic a bit. I had to run in to the sanctuary get her dad...I couldn't leave the other two kids alone, you know.

Like I said, not a huge deal, but this isn't the first time this certain individual has seemingly blown off the nursery.

And it's a good thing I stuck around, huh?
