Goodies for Goodies…

Amanda on December 8th, 2008

Another good/bad thing about having your kids hanging around the youth minisrty, is people love to give them snacks. Students and adults alike…they all want to win the love of the pastors kids. So they give out abundant amounts of candy, chips, gum, suckers, etc… My children will come around the corner showing off their bounty with beaming faces as if I too think this is the most amazing day of their life.

My daughter being 2 is a very messy eater. Many of her favorite foods end up more on the outside than the inside of her body. To cut down on her wardrobe expenses some foods require her to eat without clothes on.

With these two things being said, just recently what has started when we go to church is-  Give Molly a snack and she will take off her clothes. Awesome! So not only will she come running to find me to show off the treasure of the day, but she will come streaking through the building nudie. So perfect!

I now need a shirt or tag that reads: DO NOT feed the pastors kids!

(Luckily she’s 2 and not 16!)

Love this post! So true!! My 2-year-old is always eating/mooching when we’re at church on Wed. nights!! Of course, the students LOVE to share, especially since she remembers who has treated her in the past!!

We actually have an older gentleman that the kids call the “Candy Man” and he passes out candy to the kids every week. He found us as soon as we walked into the building this morning and before church even started my 2 yr old had brown goo running down his chin from the tootsie rolls.
