The Days of Christmas: Day 8


Read Luke 2:7—Why did Mary lay baby Jesus in a manger?
Activity: Manger ornament craft kit

We have been so blessed! Katelyn has been taking piano lessons since the beginning of September. This has been a wonderful experience for her as she has grown more accustom to the instrument. The only problem/frustration we have run into is having to take her over to the church everyday to practice the piano. Entertaining four boys in the primary room while Katie practices the piano can be quite the battle. I decided to try my luck with craigslist, an online classifieds, for a piano. As luck would have it, I came across an add for one this week with a great asking price! I contacted the seller and we were able to purchase it today! It is great especially for our little pianist! Now we'll just be that much more motivated to keep going with the piano lessons which has been a goal for Mr. A and I. We want each of our children to have the opportunity to learn to play the piano.
