Hey, all!

On Friday and Saturday I'll be at a speech and debate tournament. Thus, I won't be here. Thursday will probably spent prepping and getting ahead on school, Sunday at church and getting ready, and Monday is when our homeschool group meets. So... That's probably 5 days that you won't see me.

*thinks this is her most rambling post in here ever* Anywho, I'll miss you guys! Don't spoil my characters, and if you think about it, prayers that the tournament goes smoothly will be appreciated. :)

Shawn

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

I'm back! :D I missed you all so much!

Your prayers were answered, and much appreciated. The tournament went really well!

I was invited to the National event to compete in two events, although one was kind of guaranteed since a friend and I (it was a duo presentation) were the only ones in that category. ;) I did "win" against some competition with my interpretation of the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. ;) I spoke 25 times on Saturday, and I'm still tired. :D It was a blast.

I know how eruheran felt: you all post a lot. :D I can't wait to read it.

Did the penguins behave, Sherlock? ;) And please tell me my characters behaved. I didn't have time to pay attention to them. ;)

Aw. When I read the title I thought you were going to be in a real tournament and I was all ready with my :shock: :shock: :shock: faces.

Awesome to have you back, Lizzie Love!

Oh I am so proud! You won?! *must hear all about *

I'm sending lots of hugs and well wishes that you are home!

*is expecting a PM anytime now* ;) Thank you! And yes, I did. :D

I am planning to reply to your other PM... I'm a bit behind, as you may have guessed.

@ Joe: Nope, but some of our activities besides competing might come close. :shock: It was interesting, to say the least. Never learn to polka with a partner who is wearing high heels (and therefore only knows the girl's part :P ) when you have the habit of putting your feet in the wrong places... Ouch.

They did, Miss Watson. Other than a brief incident where they tried to use a snow machine to turn Holy Worlds into an indoor ski resort, they were not overly mischievous. ;)
