~Day 6 of Thanks~

Day 6 - Today I am thankful for wonderful opportunities for my children to have once in a lifetime experiences. Sara had the best time at State Honor's Chorus, met knew friends, and learned some great musical lessons. I'm also thankful for WONDERFUL friends to help out when we are in need....to whom we can entrust our most prized possessions - our children. :)

We had a wonderful trip to Atlanta to experience State Honor's Chorus. We met some great people and reconnected with some old friends. Although very short and busy, this was a nice little getaway.....even in the freezing temperatures and rain. :) 

We drove up yesterday and spent the night. Anna and I did a little shopping while Wayne and Reed stayed at the hotel. A little more shopping this morning while Sara and the group had a final practice before the concert. We flew down to Forsyth to drop Reed ....and Anna..... off with our friends Hall & Melinda, who so graciously kept them for us to go to Sara's concert. I'm sure Anna had tons more fun playing than she would have at the concert. There were a bazillion people there! It was wonderful to see what our kids can do in such a short time. The kids practiced pretty much from noon to nine last night with a two hour supper break. Then they practiced from 8:45 to 11:45 this morning. WOW!!! What an amazing job they did with only 1 1/2 days of practicing.....singing from memory, sign language, and singing some songs in rounds. It was AWESOME!!!

We are all exhausted and settling down for the night. More tomorrow when our little miracle turns 34 weeks!!!!

Love to all,
