Hi, everyone!

I'm back! Duh! I really enjoyed my break--it was a lot easier than I expected. I actually got back on Sunday, but I didn't post because I didn't have time. Monday was our first day of VBS at our church!

Our theme: Outer Space

Last year, I helped out with the 2 & 3 yr old class. If you have ever been inside a small room with twelve toddlers having meltdowns, then you know how I felt. Actually, all the kids were really cute (when they weren't crying) and two in particular were very good (one actually started crying because I wasn't in the room. It made me feel loved =) She was very attached to me.) I know that under normal circumstances they're very sweet, but I think even I would cry if I suddenly got dumped into a room with strange grown-ups without my mother. =)

So this year I am helping in the kitchen. One of my friends is in there too, as well as his mom, so it's an atmosphere where I'm comfortable. I washed dishes and chopped up fruit and cheese and poured drinks and served people food. It wasn't stressful, and I was kept busy the whole time. Perfect.

Post Script: On a side note, my father had his lump removed last Wednesday. We still don't know the results, but the doctors are pretty convinced it's just a cyst. Praise God, and thank you everyone for praying. Also, praise God for a near-emergency's safe resolution at VBS.

Randomness

Today we went to church. We we're on nursery duty with another family, and it was REALLY FUN!! One of the babies has the same name as Erestor, and he would only want to be held by him. Likewise, another baby had the name I would have had if I was a boy, and he really liked me. What a coincidence!

Then a family invited us to go to their house for lunch after church. We had AN ABSOLUTE BLAST!!!! I made a cake with their oldest girl, who's a year or two younger than me. And then we talked. And talked. And talked. And talked. And did I mention that we talked? Lol.

I'm wearing one of those bracelets that has the magnetic ends. Y'know, where instead of clipping it together, they just stick? They're very handy. And now it's sticking to the metal part of the keyboard. Which was kind of annoying until I took it off.

I edited like crazy yesterday! Therefore, my hands hurt. They were nearly healed, but hey, it was the book or my wrists. And y'all know what I chose. =D
