I chose all of the above stories because I remembered a lot of them from childhood, and I was drawn to the familiarity of them. I am really excited to get to read different versions of stories that I grew up hearing, and getting to dig deeper into the nitty gritty of these tales. I am most excited about Bible Women, Arabian Nights, and Alice in Wonderland. I was honestly surprised at the number of stories that we got to choose from, but also the number that I actually recognized. I definitely did not expect to really see any stories that I knew, so I was very excited to see some familiar titles.

Mary and Martha by Gustave Dore

I chose this photo because I love the story of Mary and Martha and I am so excited to read it in a different perspective during the Bible Women Unit, and hopefully learn more from this story.

As well as my many nicknames, my friends call me an old lady at heart. I love to read (most recent book- Where

Week 4 Story- The Hungry Urshana

It had been seven days that all of the animals had been stowed away on the ship. They were hungry. They were tired. Their paws, claws, and hooves hurt. It seemed as though every moment another type of animal was complaining about something, and it took all Noah had to be patient and try to tend to their every need. He was exhausted as well; not only did he have to build this giant ark, load all of the living things on the entire earth into the ark, load and take care of this family, but he also had to feed every species on the boat. Imagine herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores all living in one boat. It was all Noah's responsibility to keep them from eating each other and from eating Noah and his family! For such a long time, as well. This was not just a week-long, leisurely vacation with his family. This was the entire responsibility of saving the world that God had put in Noah's hands! So yes, stressed and exhausted is an understatement. On the eighth day, Noah was walking
