Do you remember having ‘growing pains?” I can remember lying in bed as a child and my legs just aching during a growth spurt.
During the summer between my son’s 8th and 9th grade year he grew 3 inches and 2 shoe sizes – WOW! I remember thinking how that must cause some serious aching to grow that much that fast.
I think ‘GROWING PAINS’ is a perfect way to describe Monday Nights at MNM last fall – Although it was WONDERFUL to have so many more kids attending, we grew so much and so fast that we kinda couldn’t keep up and do things as well as we should have.
The great news is that over the winter break we have had time to “catch up” and restructure a LOT of things that will make the evening less chaotic, more effective for the kids, and more enjoyable for all of the volunteeers.
And if you have any more ideas that might be beneficial, please send them – it will help us a LOT!
I really hope to see you on Mondays — We need bunches more volunteers. (This is the perfect way for a family to volunteer or for students to earn community service hours.)
Hopefully now our ‘growing pains’ are over and we have a system in place that will allow us to grow even more WITHOUT any more aches! Thank you so much
