When I was a child - a PK at that - my parents always insisted that we attend church even on vacation. It didn’t matter how loudly my siblings and I protested. Now that I’m the preacher, I’ve had twinges of guilt on those vacation Sundays when I have chosen NOT to go to church anywhere. What kind of Preacher Mom am I?! What am I teaching my poor little PK’s?! However, I am now convinced that I am learning - and demonstrating - the true nature of sabbath on those rare, blessed days. Three weeks til my next sabbath!

Why is it that it makes me happy that Dickie was impressed with our little “C”? I was going to tell him so on his blog, but I thought having a gram-ma (MaDear) post a comment would seriously cramp his style…

Also, we loved Finding Neverland, especially the dog. And Johnny Depp, who is my other celebrity crush.

Oh, you guys/gals, I would have *loved* a day off yesterday! If I hadn’t been preaching, I could easily have pulled the covers up over my head. The rain here just will not stop!!!!

Glad you had some time to worship in another church with your family.

You are way ahead of me with the movies. I haven’t been to a movie theater in two years. And, I haven’t rented in months. I’ve been too busy, but I can see movie-watching time looming on the horizon. You’ll have to help me sift through the years of missed movies to find the stuff worth watching.

I had a “civilian Sunday” yesterday, too. Slept late, ate breakfast, lingered over coffee, read the paper, went for a morning walk, helped DH with the yard work, caught up on watching Tivo…Ah…! God bless study leave.

For those readers who enjoy All C, All the Time, you can read Dickie’s account of our meeting, in which he confirms what we all know–C is an adorable child. Of course you must skim through his amusing ramble about deer, canoes, Coors, and the nature of God. Or something.

You know, after our dinner I was ready to write a long post about the nature of blog friendships and some such, but when it came down to it, I wasn’t sure what to say. Dickie sums up the dynamic well–you know much of a person’s interior life from blogging, but you don’t know basic stuff like, where the person grew up. So you end up filling in the blanks. But truly, what a great future this guy has. Smart, personable, easy-going.

Mamala, we actually went to another Presbyterian church that was nearby. I know, boring, but we were not feeling adventurous.

I’m so glad you liked Finding Neverland. It was my favorite movie last year.

So, I’m not sure, did you actually “mosey on over” to a UU church near you?
