Brave , darling , Z. volunteered to sing one of the childrens Christmas songs Solo for the Church/neighborhood Christmas party.
(That ability must have come from daddy, mommy would never ever do such a thing, the mic would slip right out of her sweaty hand and onto the floor.)
She practiced(mostly with her own rock n roll flair) in her room on her microphone several times a day.
When the time came for the real thing she forgot a line, although what a releif to mom when she didn't sound anything like Hanna- whoever, that she thinks sings so appropriately for a 7 year old.
Crushing for her though.
She knew she could do it perfect, so thanks to the very patient loving music leader and pianist she tried it again.
In front of everyone.
This is take 2.
Picture a Christmas
Children’s Songbook 50–51
1. Picture a stable in Judea.
Picture a sacred, silent night.
And can you hear
The angels near
And see the star so bright?
Picture the little baby Jesus.
Think of his life and words so dear.
Sing praise to him;
Remember him,
As you picture Christmas this year.
2. Picture the kind and gentle Joseph.
Picture the mother, Mary, fair.
And can you see
So rev’rently
The shepherds kneeling there?

Z we loved your song. Maybe you will sing it for just for us. Please! We love these awesome kids. G and G
How sweet and how brave!! What a neat thing for a mom and dad to get to watch. I have a dream that someday Ethan will perform like this... he has the singing ability but not the desire to please. We never know what we're going to get when it's time for the primary to sing in church.
