Tonight, I attend my first meeting of the Christian Ed Board at church. I am excited and nervous. I see the people all the time, but I feel all official and responsible. I am trying to get mentally and prayerfully prepared to handle all the hard work that is coming.

I chose Crocodile Dock for our theme. I am thrilled that this is available this year. I am from the south and grew up along the bayous. I know what a swamp looks and smells like and have seen my fair share of gators outside a zoo.

On a less positive note I am seriously ready for the big boys to head back to school tomorrow. They have serious cabin fever and are bickering.
