Bridget, crosses and a little chocolat

Talk about loosing track of time. I had no idea that this was the night that we sprang forward into daylight savings time until someone mentioned it this evening at a Sunday school party. Argh. Clock says 12:26 -- it's really 1:26.

Anyway, we went to a Sunday school dinner and a movie party this evening. We made spinach and cheese crepes, tomato herb salad, chocolate fondue, and hot chocolate. Can you guess the movie? Chocolat.

It was a great evening, and I have thoughts to share about the movie, but have you noticed the time? I think it's time for bed.

We just finished getting ready for Children's Church, and I'll share what we're going to talk about tomorrow:

1. A poem about Bridget of Kildare that can be found here.
2. We're going to talk a little bit about generosity.
3. S and I made Bridget crosses for the kids to have as a reminder (out of purple and white pipe cleaners -- not as nice looking as the ones traditionally made out of reeds, but who has reeds?)
4. We're going to make a giant thank you card for the congregation for their Pennies from Heaven generosity.
5. If we have time, I have pipe cleaners for the kids to try to make crosses of their own, but it took S and I forever to figure it out, so here's hoping we run out of time.
6. Tomorrow is communion, so we'll probably sneak the kids back in to share communion with their parents.

Tired now, going on to bed.
