chocolate and church

After the whirlwind (for me, anyway) week of activity last week, this week has been somewhat subdued. Hence light posts - there's not a lot to share! School and day to day house running is sometimes tedious to do, never mind inflicting on others through blogging.

Never the less, I thought I'd touch base with you all, as the weekend was eventful, being Mothering Sunday. I was gifted with chocolate and cards from my delightful brood, and we got to church, which is always worth a mention.

I love my church. We took a long time to find it, but it is absolutely our home. Christ is central to the work there, and all are welcomed and welcome. No one bats an eyelid if children are a little noisy in childish ways, and our girls have learned to sit and listen to a 40 minute sermon, which is tough enough for adults on occasion.

The journey there was eventful and made us really value finding a sound church when we did - sad to say, there's not a lot of them about.

How to draw me into reading your posts: give it a title of 'chocolate and church'!

The title lured me too :D

And Mothering Sunday has a ring to it that Mother's Day doesn't.

You mentioned in a recent post that you are deaf in one ear - I hadn't known that. The title really caught my eye because in ASL, the signs for chocolate and church are very similar. Doubly appealing.
