facebook, co-op, choir and camp
Quick updates:
I find myself checking in on Facebook several times a day. I love to read blogs, but Facebook gives me a quick sample of what other people are up to, and I find I actually spend less time on the computer when I breeze through Facebook. I haven’t stopped reading blogs, but I enjoy the shorter snippets Facebook gives me, too.
Since my youngest child, Sawyer, will be attending ASMSA this coming school year, you would think my involvement in our homeschool co-op would have come to an end. But you’d be wrong. 
I was asked to stay on as treasurer. At first I wasn’t sure I wanted to do that. But Roger and I discussed it and decided that staying active in our local homeschool community would be beneficial. At least for the next school year. We are leaving it open-ended for now.
The Celebration Singers (the choir Sawyer is in) performed a Father’s Day concert with the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra last night. As usual, the kids did a wonderful job. A lot of practice and effort goes into their performances ~ the kids willingly work hard, and the adults who work with the kids work even harder! But the choir always does a spectacular job ~ they’re the best student choir I ever heard.
Music & Drama Camp is being held this week at Cornerstone Bible Fellowship. Sawyer and Patrick were participants in Cornerstone’s first-ever music and drama camp, . This year (just like last year) Sawyer is one of the teen leaders. He gets a kick out of working with the younger kids. Eddie makes sure to give the teen leaders plenty of opportunities to embarrass themselves in front of the “campers” ~ making them perform dance offs and other goofy tricks on the stage. Of course the teen helpers love it ~ and the “campers” get to cheer for their teen leaders and learn a few lessons from them at the same time. Just as he does with the Celebration Singers, Eddie asks everyone at MAD to reach for excellence in their performances and their relationships with one another, but most especially with Christ. By the end of the week everyone’s exhausted, but the production is always worth all of the hard work. I’m looking forward to spending a little bit of time at MAD this week (just for fun) ~ the kids will showcase their music and drama skills with a performace at the end of the week.
