This weekend, like so many holiday season weekends, was full. Yesterday was Abby’s dance recital. The recital mostly consisted of her walking around the stage saying, “Daddy? Where’s my daddy?” Which made me feel special; it also made me laugh. However, it was cute and I enjoyed that she wanted to know I was watching. She never found me up high in the auditorium, but that was OK, she had fun, and so did we.

Tonight we had a church Christmas party, which was fun. I lead the music, which went better than I expected. However, apparently I’m known as the ‘fast music guy’ because when we got to ‘Away in the Manger’ I was trying to do it slow and they blitzed through the song. I’m sure that since I was supposed to be the leader I failed to communicate enough about the tempo ahead of time with lead in chords. I’ll post some little video clips from the dance recital tomorrow after I get some rest!
