Hopie's solo in the Christmas play
Originally David was asked to sing this song for our church Christmas program. He didn't really want to do it but said he would if I bought him a video game. As he practiced, Hope would sing along. He has an amazing voice, but his heart wasn't in it. Eventually he said he didn't want to do it because it sounded like a little girl song. Hope immediately volunteered. I plugged in the soundtrack and let her try it. As she sang the song that I had heard over and over again, it finally moved me to tears. She may not be perfectly on key or have David's talent for singing, but she sang it from her heart and that made all the difference.

I think she did a wonderful job. I started tearing up when she was singing.
It was a great evening. Loved the youth Christmas play (written by Jeremy Minard!). Hope's solo was precious! She's going to be a great choir member someday. I love WatchNight services. Can't think of a better way to see in the New Year! Thanks Alice for posting these great pictures. Love, Dad
That is so sweet... brings tears to my eyes. Good job, Hope!
Hope did such a great job...she doesn't even look nervous! I sorry I missed it.
