My Christmas Letter

A Christmas letter from me to you. In my own hand, as the Apostle Paul would say.

The Simple, Beautiful Story

I love these videos from St. Paul’s Church in New Zealand. (I’ve yet to meet a New Zealander that I didn’t like!) Especially considering that Jesus told us the only way to come to God was with faith like a child, this is an excellent presentation of the greatest story ever told.

Merry Christmas!

Macy’s Secret

This is what I overheard.

Macy to the horse: (whispering) “I’m go-in’ be you best friend!”

Me to Macy: “What did you say?”

Macy to Me: (laughing) “I can’t tell you!”

CONCERT

Daniel John (my rock star husband) is playing a mini-concert on Thursday night August 18th. He’s trying out a new system called Stage It that will broadcast from our computer to yours. Watch live from anywhere! He’s even taking requests. Tickets are $1. Tell your friends!

Saturday’s Work

. . . hardly feels like work at all!

Morning Routine

Felicity — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 11:00:39 +0000

I love discoveries like this. When I was loading photos onto my computer from the camera, I found several I hadn’t taken myself. Either Ada or Jesse took this photo one morning while I was still off-camera getting ready for the day.

Our mornings don’t always run this smoothly, but on this particular occasion, as is as likely to happen as not, Dan sat down at the piano and gave the girls a dancing tune. Can you see the pure joy and abandonment in Macy’s spin here? Even in a school uniform!

Don’t you wish you had a Daddy who played live music for you every morning so you could dance your way out the door?

Oh, wait, maybe you do. Maybe we all do, if only we’d listen.

What kind of music do you hear in your morning routine? And does it make you dance?

“The Sun Will Rise”

Felicity — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 11:00:10 +0000

I’ve been loving this album by The Brilliance. For several weeks now it has been my go-to music at work. It plays so nicely while I push paper and type lesson plans. It sort of has a classical/folky feel. This song has been one of my favorites and it just makes me feel happy when I hear it. Wednesdays need more happy don’t you think? Enjoy.
