she's all grown up

I had the privilege of watching my daughter lead a meeting today. Not many times I get to see in 'her' world these days - she's all grown up!

She talks more confidentially in front of large groups of people than I have every done in my entire life! (And I have no desire to either!)

She organized the group, recorded ideas for future articles, made decisions on the fly and assigned people projects convincing them they could do it! Amazing!

Wasn't it just yesterday that I taught her how to do things, and she asked me questions about everything?? Wow - kinda sad by very cool!

lunch time with staff

Today was our monthly staff meeting. We always enjoy a mixture of fun, food and work! We all work so many different hours, it is great to set time aside monthly to just ALL be together.

Everyone brought too much food as usual, but, you hate to insult anyone so you have to try everything! Next we did a fun mixer to keep the conversation lively and ended with a short information meeting and discussion of upcoming events.

I love this staff and they all are fully dedicated to serving using their amazing talents and gifts! It was such a great day together doing God's work and planning ahead for the coming weeks.
