Repeat, repeat, repeat




Emma and Tim dressed up as shepherds for their carol's service last Sunday. It was Emma's dream come true, as she was tired of being an angel. You should have seen Tim shaking his hand bells with his whole body. And he had such a cute boyish grin to go with his gusto! Emma was quite terrified of going on stage and did so well, I was so proud of her. Jo and Eric sang with their friends in the older children's choir.

I haven't exactly blogged our lead up to Christmas as planned, we have been crazy busy....but we have been going over the Christmas bible stories with the children each week. No one , not even the older children has complained of the repetition or simplicity. We are using different children's Bibles and the Bible directly and we just repeat, repeat, repeat.
Here is Douglas reading to the Children last night. I was thinking we should memorise chunks of the Christmas story too, but have not got around to doing it yet.
