Weekly post

Jan. 30, 2006

Dear friends,
A weekend filled with homework, but I got a lot done. I looked over my calendar and find that I have between 2 and 4 papers due every week, so I'm finding it productive to do my daily readings and homework on weekends to clear the deck.

Our daughter lost an upper front tooth this weekend, giving her a really adorable smile! If we're organized enough, we'll take pictures.

I hope that the week that's beginning is busy and productive! In only 5 weeks, my MIN 591 class will be on its way to New York for a week of doing ministry -- very exciting. I'm not sure what the week will hold, but I look forward to the preparations.

The Sunday Times yielded several great articles for my class, including a wickedly good review of a new hagiography of Phyllis Schlafly (ugh). Also a neat feature article on a family that, for more than 200 years, has saved all its letters, some written with dip quill pens on parchment. What a history!

Much to print.
Grace and peace,
Beth
