Sunday Woes

Not wanting to cooperate with the
picture taking

A little happier

Since leaving Hermitage Hills Baptist in September we have been looking for a new church home. We finally settled on Hendersonville First Baptist. It is rather large but is still traditional in worship style and preaching. Our only drawback has been Luke not enjoying the nursery, at all! We literally have been visiting regularly since November and he cries every time. Sometimes he cries as soon as we walk in the building! We usually cave and take him to worship with us. This is what happened the Sunday before last. He does great during the singing but when the preaching starts he loves to babble--very loudly! He never gets fussy just rambles on and on in agreement with the pastor. Last week it was my turn to take him to the lobby so Paul could listen to Dr. Stetzer. Luke and I had a lovely time playing with all of his toys and running back and forth from one end of the lobby to the other. I snapped a couple of pictures. Not sure if that was appropriate or not....oh well!

During this past week Paul and I decided we were going to take him to the nursery every week for 4 weeks and if he still wasn't used to it we would start looking at other churches. Paul found the lady in charge and told her our dilemma. She was more than accommodating and said this happens all the time but they want all the children to think of church as a happy place to come to. She suggested we try a different room since Luke is walking well now. He still cried but did much better. The new teachers called us twice to give us an update and even offered to text us next week to let us know how he is doing. We don't know if we have turned the corner or not but it does look promising!!! Maybe we can eventually go back to the Sunday School class we liked.
