Been doing much lurking lately, but not much writing. I've decided to begin writing by reading various books (other than children's literature, that is). Some are on such topics as Faith and Art, others not. I've just recently obtained a copy of Blue Like Jazz from the library and look forward to beginning it. I am finding it hard to just sit and read, although it's something I enjoy. Mounds of laundry and rooms that need attention often protrude upon my thoughts, distracting me from the words and their meaning.
This coming Saturday, I've been invited to share with a new mom's group. I was at one time a preschool teacher, and also spent time in daycare working with the 12-14 mos set. Parental boot-camp, I call it. They are looking for ideas of games & activities to do with their young ones. Boy, it's been awhile for me, but hopefully I'll come up with something useful. It'll be fun anyway! I'll let you know how it goes.
ACU spring break campaigners also arrive this weekend. They come up every year to work around town and experience Seattle for a week. It always proves to be an enlightening time for everyone involved.
We are also prepping for Easter and all that comes with it. It's one of my favorite times of year because of the hope and newness of life that Easter and Spring usher in. My mother will be here for Easter week this year as well. I haven't seen her since Thanksgiving so it will be good to visit. Zak is happy to relinquish his bed for her (plus, he "gets to" sleep in the living room)!
Well, that's it for now. I'll try and update you again soon. Till then....
Remember Good Friday as you celebrate this Easter. It's not all about the chocolate bunny.

Good to hear that you are still alive, and reading, and soon to be writing. Would that there were time in this busy season to sit and think long enough to come up with a clear thought, but alas! tis not to be. Guilt overwhelms me. My websites are a disaster, abandoned to despair. Spring is nearly here, the house is in need of constant attention, and the children absolutely refuse to stop growing up.
Perhaps we feed them too much.
Meanwhile, Easter is upon us, and there are eggs to color and chocolate bunnies to devour. And a wonderful Savior to celebrate!
Bless you all!!
