My elf family

Hey sisters! And you brave men out there!

I don't have much time, because I'm writing a paper at Panera on my theology of corporate worship comparing my background and an 'unfamiliar' church. Try not to be jealous though, m'kay? :)

Anyway, my brain is scattered because I have so much I want to catch you up on! But for now, I'm thinking you really should love yourself and go read 1 Samuel 21 and 22. David is something to behold. I am hoping to get to expound upon it soon...but finals are beating down my door!

I have 3 papers to finish writing, and 2 finals - all due next Wednesday. Big nerd party huh?

Anyway, I thought this would make you laugh, and be a fun thing to do for any of your friends or family. I keep cracking up over it...particularly with my brother in his dancing tights :) Go here!

Hey Shelly,

Just dropping in to let you know I'm praying for you in this "crunch" time of the semester. May you do well on your papers and finals. Trust that you have a "cyber" family out here covering you in prayers. . . oh, and enjoy Panera's. . it's my favorite home away from home. Come to think of it I could go for some broccoli cheese soup right about now.

Much love,
~Cheryl

My daughter and I did this the other day.I'm not thinking thinking the elves dancing is much better than mine. :)
Study hard and then study some more.
So glad it is you and not me. Although sometimes I think my brain would like that type of change.Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and catching up.
