The best part of my christmas vacation is when me and my family (my mom, dad, and Elia) go to my mom’s work to sing and tell the story of Jesus birth. Also this year my grandpa and grandma from my mom’s side came to help us. My grandpa is a pastor so he used the slide show that he made and he read something that he preaches on Christmas day. So this year, unlike last year, we had no idea what songs we were singing until christmas day (a.k.a. the day that we were performing on.) So as you have probably realized by now that it was going to be wild. Also to make it crazier we had not gone through it once with my grandparents. But on christmas day right after church we practiced, and practiced, and practiced until I, well, until I had a very, very sore throat. The day before I had a sore throat to, but this was bad. Anyway right before people started coming into the auditorium we had it practiced well enough to go on, and I drank lots of water (Just to be safe, I even had a very full water bottle right beside me.) We were ready. No one was nervous, we were going to play it cool. So my mom works at Freedom Village (it’s a place for retired people.) So when we had started singing and performing, that was the best part of my christmas vacation, to see all of those people smiling at us, some people who did not have family’s to go to, it was awesome.

I saw God at work in my life then because God had us go to sing to those people, to make them feel better and happy. My mom had talked to one of the residents there and her husband had died, and one of her sons. She had one more son, but he lived in Florida, so she was very happy to see us performing, so that’s very cool how God let her see us.
