Away in a Manger

Andrew's preschool put on a Christmas program for the parents, this week.  For the last couple of weeks Andrew would not talk about it, I knew they were practicing at school, but throughout the day I would catch him singing some of the songs that were in the program.  I was so excited to see him preform, I was nervous, and he didn't really care.  He was a shepherd with the multicolored head covering and the stripped sweater.

When they came out on the stage this is what Andrew did when he saw me trying to take pictures.  I was a crazy paparazzi mom taking video and pictures, to show Bobby latter that night.  I love that little smile that he couldn't cover with his hand.

 This is what he did most of the time.  I got him singing on video.  I was so proud of him for following his teachers directions so well.

 There is something about this expression on his face that reminds me of Bobby.  Andrew had his own cheering section at the play, all the grandparents came and even our friend Mindy from life group.  My kids are loved so well.

 Lily wanted her picture taken too.  She had so much fun skipping her nap to join Andrew at school.

 The girls.

 I love this picture my dad got of Lily.  It is impossible to get a "natural smile" from her.  This is the beautiful girl I get to be with everyday!
