June 22

Abby spent the past several weeks learning songs and dance moves as part of this summer's Vacation Bible School worship team. Today, she donned her jeans and the bright orange tee shirt and headed over to the church to record the routines.

She told me afterward that the recording process made her nervous because she didn't want to mess up (which I already knew), but I'm proud of her for stepping a bit outside of her comfort zone and taking part. And I'm even more pleased that I didn't even have to try to goad her into it.
