Offering suggestions

We're not planning on attending the church's annual retreat at Tower Hill Camp this year because E's golf schedule has conflicted in past years. We've been going since L was born and she was not happy about the possibility of missing it this year. Enter our church family. One mom, L, offered to take L to the camp with her on the Friday night and because she's staying through early Monday morning, another mom, M, offered to bring her back Saturday night. L won't get the entire weekend away as we usually stay till Sunday after breakfast, but she will get to the enjoy the fall weather and Lake Michigan. Hopefully the weather holds out.

The church is planning a fun day of youth activities and L decided she wanted to be in on the planning so she contacted M, our minister of children's education, and started making suggestions. M called L this afternoon to continue the conversation and here's L, searching the internet for craft ideas and forwarding them to M in an email. It was something productive for L to do on this rainy Sunday.
