On Saturday morning, the SITAG kids shone brightly. We've been talking about giving them the opportunity to showcase the things they've been working on, and they did such a great job.
Every child presented something: piano, strings, or recitation. We got to hear Psalm 23 in German, Olivia recited all of Hebrews 11, and we cheered as we observed musical growth in each presenter since our last recital.
Our girls have advanced far enough on their strings that I can no longer keep up with the piano accompaniment, so they have to depend on recordings.
Unfortunately, the piano teacher who had been coming to SITAG every week suddenly passed away just a few days ago. So we dedicated the recital to her, and when we said the blessing over the breakfast casserole, we also said thank you for Jennie's life and influence of love for Jesus.
A few of us left before cleanup was finished and attended Jennie's funeral. What a sweet reminder to me to celebrate each other. To take lots of pictures. To tell each other what we appreciate about how God formed each of us and how we see Him working.
