Lynn held up mikes while the teen helpers sang a song, then she and her
daughters sang.
The Advisory did a
Question and
Answer panel session.
At lunch, the Advisory members
ate while reading through questions that people had written on slips of
paper, trying to pick some to answer during the afternoon's Question
and Answer session, and assigning some to specific
Advisory members. For instance, since I've homeschooled three boys, I
was assigned a question about doing CM with boys. It was a rushed
lunch. I don't think we even got through all the questions before lunch
was over and it was time to get back to the conference.
I answered my question near the beginning of the session, then had to
leave. We had planned for the babies to play quietly on the steps of
the stage while we answered questions, but Baby M got restless and then
cranky and needed her nap. So I listened to most of the session from a
bench in the hall with a nursing baby. After she fell asleep, I was
able to carry her, sleeping, back in. So I got to be there for all of
Lynn's session on scheduling. I listened to rest of it from the nursery
after Baby M woke up. The church has a great speaker system!
After the conference was over, I talked to a few people, I was given a
gift of little clay figurines made to look like my family by Lisa
Ector's daughter, and a beaded bookmarker for my CM volumes made by
Deborah Miller's daughter. I finally had a chance to go look at what
people had brought for show-and-tell--just in time to see papers and
notebooks whisked off the table because it was time to clean up and
leave the building! So I didn't see much of the show-and-tell items
that everyone brought..
