We scattered Elena’s birthday celebrations onto multiple days to accomodate the schedule this week. Today’s sleepyhead pic was shot on location in our loft/playroom, where Miss Elena nodded off last night.

She’s snuggling with her yellow (favorite color) blanket and nestled on top of the Hello Kitty wall stickers she received from Granny D & Grandpa Mike.

[It is rather obvious that no one did loft-movies & games or loft-toys yesterday, isn’t it? Oops! Richard has a passable excuse; I, on the otherhand, can only claim grocery shopping (5 stores this week) as my time away from home. But I digress…]

“I get to do bigger things, I’m stronger”  ~~Elena’s thoughts on being 7 years of age.

(Fathers Day musings will be thought of later in the week)

The Baron’s post this week over at Waters of Mormon, Block-Hour Smackdown: Sunday School vs. Auxiliary Hour, takes a good look at both sides of the popularity and practicality of post-Sacrament church meetings.

I’m curious to know what you would say, my dear reader, if you had your way.
What’s the answer?

I can tell you I’m grateful that I’m not on the 3-6pm block at our building here–yikes!

Come one and all to see the birthday girl Cheanna! Her birthday is today, June 7th. She is turning ten years old today!

I like to be her little sis a lot. And I bet she likes to be a big sis.
