busy weekend

this morning I was at karate from nine a.m. to twelve-thirty.
I helped teach a bunch of Power turtles, the power turtles is a group of little kids who take karate. they are usually 2 and a half to three years old. they are soooo cute! later today my church is doing a program for the kids ages 5 to 12 called 'little apostles'. I'm two years too old for it, but I get to help out. all the eighth graders need 10 hours of church service and this is one of the things I do. When I first heard that I had to do church service I thought Oh great but when I did it I realized it was fun!
I thought I was going to be chasing around a bunch of five-year-olds but instead the kids are pretty well behaved. I can't wait to go. some of the bounce houses somtimes fall down. then the parents and teens have to get the kids out of them as fast as we can. usually the reason for it falling down is the kids bounced so hard that it gets pushed against the wall. the tube that keeps it inflated squeezes up.
then the older kids like 10 to 12 get to play basket ball and air hocky. it usually lasts for a few hours. after I finish helping with that I my mom is going to take me to a freinds house to babysit. I babysit this cute six-year-old. she is really sweet, sometimes I call her Bug bug, it's her nickname. then there's her older sister, Nessa. Nessa is really good with Bug.
she is also patient and it is hard to be patient with your little sis. (take it from me the second oldest of five!)
My sister is really good. she is about your typical tween, so she has her moments. But I have mine too!
                               until next time!
