Well, I survived. Today was my try at teaching my 3–year-old daughter’s Sunday school class. Every summer, church members have the opportunity to serve in our church’s Kids’ Kingdom in order to give the regular teachers a much deserved summer break. Instead of requesting a specific age group where I might have been comfortable (last […]
We are winding down our first year of teaching youth group, and it’s been an interesting experience, to say the least. Last week, my “small group” consisted of 17 girls, and it was totally crazy. We couldn’t get much accomplished, but luckily they weeded themselves out – those who didn’t want to participate (their choice)
AH…. Saturday… nothing to do, day off. I watched Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (can’t beat Doc Brown chewing the scenery as a Klingon baddie getting kicked by the ever poetic William Shatner…”I…have HAD… ENOUGH of…YOU!“).

I still have four high school band yearbooks (yes, the band had its own yearbook) and my one surviving yearbrickbook
Okay, long commercial break over. We are on Saturday now I believe: . 7AM: Lights turned on outside in the hallway, I wake up for the last time with a little headache but much less exhausted since going to bed. I was exhausted because for three out of the four days prior I was up
Best winter retreat ever! I had so much fun that nothing could possibly compare. I wish I could say that was this weekend but that wouldn’t be honest of me. For sure, many can say that and completely mean it as it really was a good retreat. The reason will become clear, and you may
Last night’s youth group was… interesting, to say the least. It was the last session before a 2-week holiday break, and the kids were as hyper as they could be! We had decided to throw the kids in my husband’s group and my group a pizza party, but last week, my husband had another teacher’s

Well, ok, so last Sunday wasn’t really my stage debut; I acted in about 4 stage plays when I was a kid, and three quarters of those roles were in The Wizard of Oz 🙂 But somewhere along the line, I developed a severe stage fright, and I haven’t come close to the front of
