Leah's 1st Trip to CPBC

At long last, here are new pictures!  We took a wonderful trip up to Covenant Point Bible Camp in the U.P. and stayed with our good friends Kyle and Jenny for a week.  It was a blast to show Leah around camp.  She got to sing camp songs, and meet our old friends, and play in Lake Hagerman. 

Here's Leah our first morning there.  She appears to be
a bit apprehensive about breakfast with 100 people in the dining hall...


















Kyle and Jenny after dinner.  (Cooked by head chef Jenny - Yum!)














Leah found Kyle to be quite humorous...














It was cool while we were there, but we made it
in the lake a few times!

I am almost not surprised anymore when a stranger puts her hand on my belly for a prolonged amount of time in a public restroom while she tells me horror stories about delivering the 15 th of her 17 children. Here are a few of my favorite encounters: 1. An elderly man came over to me at the grocery store in the produce section looking very stern and asked me if I was trying to steal a watermelon. (He then broke into a semi-toothless grin.) 2. A kindergartner came running up to me while I was on recess duty, put her hand on my tummy and said, "Mrs. Dainty! I just saw your belly MOVING! Is that your baby? Is she having recess, too?" 3. Lucy (our dog) gave me several annoyed glances as she tried to snuggle up to me while we were watching TV and kept getting nudged in the face by t...

Persuasive Essays

My sixth grade class has been working on persuasive essays this quarter, and one of their first assignments was to write a persuasive piece on what Mr. and Mrs. Dainty should name their baby! They worked in partners, and they got to choose either a girl's name or a boy's name. Their responses were quite interesting and they have certainly given us some chuckles. Here are some of the highlights. (Spelling and grammar errors have been left in for comedic purposes.) Most Unique Supporting Details "Isabella is a perfect name because Queen Isabella helped supply Colombus for his trip across the sea. When we were younger we wished that there were famous people with our names. Many people may think Isabella is a weird name, but we think it is very beautiful."
