Amazing Grace

So I'm doing a bible study on GRACE, which I'm realizing I didn't fully grasp before this study. I won't get into all the amazing details of it, but can I just say that it's amazing how much God loves me, and I how much I don't deserve... any of it. I hope I can spread that kind of love and grace to every single person I meet!

Well, we watched this amazing "boy band" sing opera as an intro to the first lesson on this wonderful thing that a song was written after-- "Amazing Grace." Now, can I tell you that I had heard of this group before, and I heard rumors that Simon Cowell put them together. But I had never listened to them or seen them. Um....... Simon Cowell is truly and most definitely a genius. These "boys" are from all over--Spain, Italy, France, and the U.S. and all I can say is that I think everyone in Heaven will sound and look like this.

Here's the group, Il Divo, singing at the Colosseum in Italy. Ugh.... I have GOT to go visit my friend Kyra in Rome when Il Divo is in town. Enjoy this beautiful gift.

My mom got tickets for us back in October for my birthday. She is so astute and thoughtful! In case you aren't familiar with "Lord of the Dance." Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Mr. Flately's Dance: "Lord of the Dance is an Irish musical and dance production that was created, choreographed, and produced by Irish-American dancer Michael Flatley, who also took a starring role. Michael Flatley found his first fame starring in Riverdance, but he left the show in 1995 before its debut in London after a disagreement over creative control. F

When you smile...

The whole world smiles! This was his very first "conscious smile" Who says you can't dress up little boys for fun too? Silas enjoyed sleeping at the lake instead of fishing or swimming. Anyone surprised? Our newest pastime consists of singing to Silas until he shows us his new array of smiles. Matthew discovered this newest ability when he began singing a classical ballad... I won't embarrass him by naming the lyrics. It doesn't matter how tired you are, this will make everything better! I mean come on. Are you still having a bad day? Did that make it better yet!? Had my  first few outing without the little man to go to coffee, dance, and this beautiful woman's wedding shower. Love you Christi! Thanks to my old roomie for some over-sized coffee mugs to start my day right. A cup of joe and the Word make life worth living. This is his favorite gesture.  I think he's solving the world's problems. That a boy Silas. I knew
