New Passengers at the Training Station

Last night we had orientation for parents who are new to the Training Station, the preschool that serves as a ministry of CrossWay. What a great turnout! I didn’t expect more than a few families, but it seems like there were about 40 people there. It was nice getting to meet some of the parents, even though some of them warned me about their children. One couple even said, “We apologize in advance!” It’s probably not a coincidence that all the parents who said things like this are parents of two-year-olds!

One thing that was pretty cool was running into a guy I used to work for, about eight years ago. Now he’s married and has a couple kids, and his son is starting at the Training Station, so I guess I’ll see him around throughout the year.

It’s already looking like it’s going to be a fun and exciting year at the Training Station! Last year I didn’t really have much opportunity to get to know the kids or their parents, but this year I’ll be able to be much more involved and hopefully get to know the families. Work is always a lot more fun when you’ve got little kids there for entertainment!
