Weekly Update for Sept. 16, 2009

Happy Monday to you and welcome to all of our new members! We're very excited to get started on this new year of Mornings for Moms. If you are new to our group, we send out this weekly email newsletter to remind you about what's coming up for the next couple of weeks and let you know about any special announcements or information that you might interest you. You can also find this information on our Mornings for Moms blog located at http://www.mornings4moms@blogspot.com.


This coming week at M4M we will be hosting a special guest speaker, Rosemary West, who will be talking with us about household chemicals and children's health. I am very excited to hear what she has to say. I've always been a bit nervous about chemical cleaners and look forward to learning what's safe to use and what's not. Remember, we will start announcements at 9:30 sharp, so make sure to get kids settled in the nursery and have "chatting" done by that time. We also want to have enough time to hear everything Rosemary has to say to us, so we will try to remember to keep our questions and comments until the end of her talk. We've gotten a little relaxed about that in recent years, but we want to remember to show our guest speakers every courtesy.

Next week (September 23) we will begin breaking up into our small groups. We will use this week to get to know our groups better. More info on this soon!

See you Wednesday!

Karen

Some children's letters to God:
Dear God, Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones, why don't you just keep the ones you got now? Love, Jane.
Dear God: I think about you sometimes, even when I am not praying. Elliott.
Dear God: Thank you for the baby brother, but what I really prayed for was a puppy. Jane.
Dear God: Maybe Cain and Abel would not kill each other so much if they had their own rooms. It works for my brother. Larry.
Dear God, I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that okay? Neil.
Dear God: I think the stapler is one of your greatest inventions. Ruth M.
Dear God: In bible times did they really talk that fancy? Jennifer
Dear God: I bet it is very hard for you to love all of everybody in the whole world. There's only four people in my family and I can never do it. Nan.
Dear God: If we come back as something, please don't let me be Jennifer Horton because I hate her. Denise.
Dear God: We read Thomas Edison made light. But in Sunday school they said you did it. I bet he stoled your idea. Sincerely, Donna.
Dear God: If you give me a genie lamp like Alladin, I will give you anything you want except my money or my chess set. Raphael.
