Hi Girlfriends!

Hello my dear MOPS girlfriends!

How delighted I was to see Alysun's post! Isn't her decorating beautiful! I was feeling so terrible to have been neglecting you faithful bloggers! It seems that time passed too quickly since I last wrote anything here! I missed you all when Nathan and I were gone in Africa. It was an amazing trip, but it's good to be home again!

I did want to let you know of a few activities we have coming up with MOPS-so get out your calendar/day timer/palm pilot/back of your hand and a pen and jot them down!

February 13~ Couples Panel
February 17 ~6 pm “Sweetheart Dinner”
February 27 ~ Julia Anne Garland-Sibling Rivalry
March 13 ~ Gardening with Mary Lou King
March 27~ GYMboree! Mom & Kids fun time! Games & a puppet show. EBC gym. 9-11 am.
April 10 ~ Birds & Bees Panel
April 17 ~ Moms Game Night

And remember to be reading your Book Club selection. "The Hiding Place" by Corrie Ten Boom. I was able to read it this week! [Both of my kids, husband and even myself have been sick for a week (each of us taking turns and sharing so nicely) and I've had LOTS of time at home]. I was able to read it in a day--absolutely amazing! I jotted down a few thoughts after I read it and I look forward to sharing with you what touched me through her story--and I anticipate hearing from you as well.

We missed so many of you at our last meeting--it seems our household is not the only one 'under the weather.' We hope and pray you will all recover quickly and we look forward to seeing you at our next meeting!
