Monday I was sitting at the volunteer desk at the church, doing my weekly Monday duties, and the Aftercare assistant for City of Life Christian Academy walked a line of four year olds to the bathrooms for a restroom break. I was sitting, half-listening to the madness that IS this time of the day (and secretly thinking, "Wow I'm glad I'm not teaching anymore!") when I heard the following exchange:
Assistant: Line up, guys. You (points to kid) be the line leader.
Four year old: But I'm the line leader!! Why does she get to be the line leader?
Assistant: Because sometimes we need change. It helps us grow inside.
At first I laughed, because that was a pretty cute way to break it down for a four year old. But then I realized - I need the reason for change explained to me on a four-year-old level too!!

Cassie- I had no idea that you had a blog...and such an amazing story. I remember that first day we unloaded your truck...and what I have loved watching from the outside is your growth and the beautiful blossoming of your life. You are a joyful, insightful leader for your generation and for mine. I am honored and blessed to know you.Lois Gallagher
