Stars of the show

We have already celebrated Christmas with music several times this month.  Last week all three girls sang at a program at church, and Meredith was an actress in a drama production.  She loved being on stage.  She basked in the laughter and applause from the audience even when it wasn't for her.  Daddy and I were so proud of our girls.  They looked so beautiful in their holiday dresses and their faces shown with the joy of Jesus in their hearts.  I love it that my kids get the opportunity to sing praises and celebrate holidays at church.  It is sure a blessing.  

Frosty

The ground is covered in snow tonight.  It's been snowing for about 18 hours and it is beautiful and white and SO COLD!  The kids were in a festive mood tonight and wanted to watch a Christmas movie.   They chose "Frosty the snowman". 

 This was the first time that Michael has seen it.  After it was over, he told me that  

"when the purple man locked Frosty in the 'house' Frosty went to heaven."  

SO CUTE!!!  I had no idea that he knew about heaven!!!  YAY for Sunday school teachers!!!

Singing today

The choir that the girls are a part of sang for church today.  Marky had a speaking part, Maddie was in the choir and Meredith had a solo.  The song was called "Happy Birthday Jesus".  It was so beautiful for me to hear them sing "Jesus, I love you" and know that they really mean it!  It was the most precious thing ever.  I didn't get any pictures of them singing - I can't believe it!  Patrick had the video camera and between that and taking care of Michael, we had our hands full.  We've already watched the video; it blessed me again.  What a special Sunday morning it was.  I am one proud mama!
