The Weekly Spelling Bee.....

Our weekly Spelling bee is usually held on Friday nights. Our "host"? None other than......my dad! We've had a lot of fun having Spelling bees and it has been a sort of family tradition-- and if nothing else a fun highlight of the week! While we don't get prizes per se for the Spelling bee, we usually have our memory passage contest then and that usually heralds a prize or two. If we're lucky. And if we've been good for the last month. And......I'm kidding! But the thing is, we never know when there's going to be a prize. So our attempt "could be in vain" (as some of the lazier people in our family say) or we could receive a great and wonderful prize! Our latest passage was Isaiah 53:1-8. If we wanted to, we could also say verses 9 and 10 as a bonus. Me and Lane both said the bonus passage and the prize is still being decided....which for me is torture because patience is not one of my strong character traits.

But God is still working on me and teaching me new things every day--thankfully!
