Gettin' Ready for the Miracle....

When I was little, my mom directed the children's choirs at both churches we attended. Like me, Mom is a fan of the Children's Theater productions, and at both Wilkes Blvd. and Missouri United Methodist we performed a Christmas show called "Gettin' Ready for the Miracle". I've got a freakishly good memory, so I remember the lyrics to most of the songs from the show, and the lyrics to the title song have been running through my head like crazy lately. I'd say they're a pretty good descriptor of my life right now. We're at T minus five days and counting! Today was my last Sunday at church sans child and I found myself looking forward to stuff like taking her down front for the Children's Sermon, her baptism, and just her life in the church. I totally grew up a church kid with Sunday school, choir, bell choir, youth group...I was in to everything and loved it. What I didn't consciously realize was the huge effect being "raised" by the church was having on my life. I'm just really excited to be able to offer that to my daughter.
Brad and I will do our best to keep you updated as the week progresses. If you want to know what's going on, just call us!
Thanks for all the prayers and well-wishing!
