| For the Fun of It! | |
| By Leanne on9/29/2009 7:55 PM | |
| | One of my responsibilities at my church is to work with our preschool and I have to say it is delightful. These little ones teach me so much... this past week they reminded me of how much fun life can be when we relax and just do things "for the fun of it!" instead of "because I have to," or "because it is the right thing to do," and without worrying about "getting it right." It all started... | | |

| Fourth of July | |
| By Leanne on7/4/2009 8:46 PM | |
| | I was just sitting here watching fireworks on television and thinking about, as a child, how exciting the 4th of July was... how much I loved my country and how much faith I had in my government! I can't help but wonder what children today think... | | |

| | I just got home from vacation in San Diego. I went on a tour of a submarine and was reminded of the way children view the world and how blessed we are to work with them and have them in our lives! | | |

| Strong Little Girls! | |
| By Leanne on1/13/2009 10:50 PM | |
| | I was telling my children at Sunday School--there were about 90 kids, all ages and a nice mix of boys and girls--about Moses and how an evil king was worried about the strength of the Hebrew people so he wanted to have them killed. | | |

| These Days of Quiet | |
| By Leanne on12/29/2008 11:49 AM | |
| | I never know quite what to do with myself during these days between Christmas and Advent. I feel like I need to get back to regular routine and start doing my "to do" lists. I feel like I should start calling all my friends that I wanted to have coffee with during the holidays but didn't find time to and have coffee and lunch to get caught up...but I am tired. So is everyone I know! | | |

| Advent: A Time to Ponder | |
| By Leanne on12/4/2008 9:56 PM | |
| | I just got home from visiting my grandson in Kentucky. He is 18 months old--into everything--exploring everything! I took him lots of toys to bribe him into remembering me. I took a book that lit up, a magnetic alphabet set, and a little wooden nativity set. I expected him to like all his toys except the nativity set. | | |
