Kaleb has been practicing for weeks to sing a couple of songs during the Christmas Program at church. At home he knew all the words and motions perfectly. When he was up on stage, he mostly just looked around at everyone else. I don't think he opened his mouth to sing at all, and he did try a couple of the motions. The really sweet thing was, he was so excited afterwards that he sang his songs all the way home too. I guess at 4, he just isn't ready to sing on stage. He and Alana both really enjoyed watching the rest of the Christmas Program with the big kids.

Alana and Kaleb are finally starting to feel better after having bad colds all week. I had to take all three to the doctor earlier in the week, and Alana was put on antibiotics for a double ear infection. It is so good to see them start to feel better. Jaylee still has the cold, and looks so sad! She has the watery, runny eyes and drippy nose. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do for a cold at her age. Or any other age. Dave and I haven't been feeling well all weekend either. I am hoping that everyone will be feeling much better this week. Until the next bug comes home at least.

The kids let me take pictures in front of the tree before getting into play clothes. They looked so cute! Alana really liked that her dress matched Jaylee's. I imagine that opinion won't last forever, but I'll enjoy it while it does!
