Bump Day

We were involved in a very minor rear-end collision yesterday afternoon less than a mile from home. We were stopped behind two cars at a stoplight. Just as the light turned green, a woman behind us rammed into the van. There was no apparent damage to either vehicle and WE ARE ALL OK. The back of Mommy's head hurt afterwards and she was a little bit dizzy, but not too much to drive home. The girls were frightened, but not hurt.

We are thankful and blessed that it was not any worse. We thought Wednesday was hump day, not bump day.

La-la-la-la

The girls perform their first song of the year on the fifthteenth of this month. They have been working really hard on getting each song just tight and making really good progress.

This year, Jules will be singing "Angels" by Amy Grant and "Love Changes Everything" from the musical Aspects of Love by Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber.

Kitty is performing "This Is My Father's World" - author unknown and "Friends" by Michael W. Smith.

New this year is a duet. They will being singing "The Coloring Song" by Petra together. Additionally, we are hoping most of the performances will be sung with live guitar accompaniment. An instrumental version of the song is not available, but Mommy was able to get a copy of the sheet music. Another student of their instructor volunteered to record the guitar back-up for the vocals. The girls have been using thus version for practice and will be using it at perormances only if the youngman is unable to attend. What a unique experience for the girls!

What's red, delicious and ... seedless?

Today, while cutting open an apple for our snack, Mommy discovered that it had only one seed. Period. Since when didwe develop seedless apples?!?
