Merry Christmas!

"A Charlie Brown Christmas"

The girls performed last night with our homeschool co-op . . .

Mia as Lucy . . .

 

 

Joy as Woodstock . . .

 

 

 Lindy as a sheep in the nativity . . .

 

 

and somehow I ended up co-directing! It was so much fun to have this experience together, and the girls were all absolutely wonderful and adorable!

 

 

A classic come to life all about the true meaning of Christmas!

 

"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shown round about them. And they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not, for behold, I bring you tidings of great joy which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you. Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly host, praising God and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace, goodwill toward men."

 

That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.

 

 

 



Joy's Character Trait Award

Here is a picture of Joy receiving her award in chapel at our homeschool co-op. And wouldn't you know it . . . the character trait was "joy"! How perfect! It was extra special because  I am her kindergarten teacher, so I got to present her award.

God gave us the name "Joy" for this precious daughter . . . it truly stemmed from the joy that we felt in adopting her into our family. And of course the Lord knew that it would be a perfect fit for this joyful little girl. She brings joy to everyone she meets! Congratulations, Joy, you did it!
