Well, the kids were a part of the Christmas parade in Nocona. Madeline's preschool decorated wagons and Charlie went along, too. Then they sang in the gazebo downtown, and Madeline's ballet class performed. Her first performance!! I was so proud! I still can't believe I am teaching my own daughter to dance! And soon, I'll have two! Afterwards, they were able to sit on Santa's lap. Our friend Debbie dresses as Ms. Claus every year and this year was very special as she has been pretty sick the past couple of months. In fact, we had not even seen her for about 8 weeks. So it was wonderful that she felt well enough to do something that she loves so much. And the kids were so excited to see her! As was I!! Please continue to pray for her that she will gain strength and get well enough to continue to live her life the way she wants.
