Miss Merry Christmas Pageant Fayette Elementary

So proud of Jaylee tonight at the Miss Merry Christmas Pageant for Fayette Elementary!!!! She did SOOOO good!!!! She was 2nd Alternate and Friendliest in the Kindergarten Division!!!!! I think I am most proud of Friendliest since it was voted on by her peers!!!! So so proud!!! Do you think I'm smiling a bit while I write this...Yes you would be right!!!!!

Well, we survived another year of Scrooge!!!! As usual we had so much fun and recieved such a blessing, but I am SO GLAD that it's over!!!! The whole purpose of Dogwood Productions is to share the gospel, and to hear stories from those who come to see the shows really makes all the long practices worth it. Here is a little story........After one of our shows while the cast was out front greeting those who came, a little boy who had recently lost his mother walked up to one of the angels and asked if they were real. Of course their response was yes I am real. It was then that the little boy asked if they had seen his mother in heaven where they were. Just breaks my heart....but I know that that little boy felt so good when he thought they had seen his mommy. Really makes me thankful for my family this Christmas Season, and thankful that God sent his Son so that we could live with Him in eternity!!! On another note....I am a horrible mom....even though I'm not exactly able to take pictures while my child is up on stage (I play the keyboard for Dogwood) you would think that I would at least take pictures before and after. But I forgot my camera every single show.....ughh!!! Thanks to the wonderful photographers for Dogwood who I can count on to have pics of my child!!!!!! Here are a few....
