Our neighborhood Foursquare church had more than I bargained for, in all of my denominational ignorance. I felt good things during the service, and the congregation was very friendly, but the worship style was a bit more "out there" than I think we are ready for. Thanks to Natalie for her kind hospitality and tour. The search continues, I don't know what is on the slate for next Sunday, but in the meantime we listen to CD sermons from All Saints, continue to read and pray.

The reading poll results: I did start reading Vanity Fair, at least through the part where Amelia Sedley and Becky Sharp leave Miss Pinkerton's (a couple of pages....), so I suppose that is my next read. This among reading some G.K. Chesterton, gardening books, the paper, etc.

The theme for my son's 2nd birthday gathering is decided: a certain red furry creature with four letters in his name, who likes to laugh a lot. I even let him choose among elephants, Bob the Builder, Blue's Clues, etc., and he chose Elmo. This will be combined with a trip to the Bay Area Discovery Museum to see the Sesame Street exhibit and maybe even meet the red one himself.
