Mallory's First Chrismas Play






So I am very behind on all the events that happened in December, so it's time to play catch up.

Mallory attends a Trinity Play school here 3 mornings a week. This year she got to be in her first Christmas play! This happened on December 19th. Nana, John and I all came to watch. The entire play was about 20 minutes long and since Mallory's class was the youngest they brought them in towards the end for the last two songs. They sang "We wish you a merry Christmas" and "Happy Birthday to Jesus". I had no clue what songs they were going to be singing, since Mallory kept telling me they were singing Row Row Row your boat and didn't' appear to know any other songs. They ended up bringing Mallory's class in with them holding on to a rope. It was so cute! We made sure as not to bring attention to ourselves, not knowing what she would do if she saw us. She looked so confused the whole time taking it all in. I wish I could know what was going on in that little mind of hers! Her facial expressions were priceless. After the play, we were invited back to her classroom to have a party with them. Their teacher read a book to them while they ate Christmas cookies. After eating, all the kids had sweet little gifts for their parents. This included some handmade ornaments. Getting to see Mallory be apart of this was a feeling I will never forget!! What a blessing it is to be her mother! Now, weeks later, she is still singing Happy Birthday all the time and still puts Jesus in at the end. Praying one day she will understand who Jesus really is and what His birth means to us! Enjoy the pictures.

Stay tuned for a successful 60th Surprise Party for the best Dad a girl could ever have!
