My beautiful girlies

Here are some beautiful pictures Lisa posted on her blog, but I want them on mine too. Are they just too cute, or what??

I'll be heading south to spend five days with them just as soon as school is over at the end of this month. I can hardly wait. I also will get to see the final night of Jeremy's performance in the musical Gypsy. He is playing the part of Tulsa and has an awesome tap dancing act. Their first night was this past Saturday. They're doing four weekends in a row.

This morning a special gentleman from a nearby retirement community, Richard K., came to school to talk to the middle school about his life. A number of years ago, when Richard and his late wife moved to the retirement community they attended our church for a few years. There are many amazing things about Richard, but the most amazing of all is his piano playing. He can do entire recitals of absolutely flawless classical piano, totally from memory. He captured the attention of our middle school with three gorgeous pieces, including Franz Liszt's Leibestraum, a favorite of mine. I used to play it at weddings, but let me tell you, I did not play it the way he did it this morning. It was quite a treat!
