Christian Christmas Music Day 7

***Until Christmas Day, I will be highlighting one song that defines Christmas for me and my family. Hopefully, some of these songs will be an inspiration to you and your family as well.

Day 7 – Nat King Cole – The “unforgetable” voice

The Christmas Album  Song – Joy to the world

Nat King Cole Christmas

I first heard about Nat King Cole when I saw his daughter Natalie Cole do a duet with her father using old photos and singing with him.  I remember having chills just thinking about what Natalie was going thru singing a song like that.  Since then, I have been a fan of Nat King Cole and all that he has done for for music thru Jazz.

This morning i saw my daugthers walking to class and i thought, “…wow they are growing up so fast”.  That moment with my daughter along with the picture above and the singing of Natalie Cole with her father makes me very blessed this morning.  Thank you lord for allowing me to take care of these kids while they are here and thank you for the moment Natalie got to sing with her father.   Merry Christmas!  =)  -PJSLB

Christmas at Tattnall Square Academy 2016

Tattnall Square Academy Kids Yul Love 2016

First of all, I need to apologize to the more than 1300 followers in over 100 countries for this entry but this is an entry I HAD to write about.  As i said in the past, a big reason for making the move back to Georgia was for my daughters to be able to go to school at Tattnall Square Academy. One my my favorite events at Tattnall is the last week before Christmas break.  It is just a festive atmosphere where you really feel the love that the school has for one another.  Today was a day that showed the heart that Tattnall has for its community. For the last 30 years, TSA has been leading the charge in helping Kids Yul  Love give toys to the less fortunate.

The cast of the nativity play.  I love being at a school where EVERYONE is free to express their love for Christ.

Had to add this picture.  While everyone is doing a fantastic job, my daughter is the angel in the middle with her hands up in the air all relaxed. 

Santa coming into the Athletic Complex with the gifts the students brought for Kids Yul Love.

Some of the gifts the students at Tattnall brought.

The opening of the Polar Express play.

The TSA band of gold always brings it. 

For our readers outside of the USA, I pray that this is a good representation of how a Christian school here fosters the next generation of Christian leaders. If you have some pictures as well, please share! We would love to see them

Christian Christmas Music Day 6

***Until Christmas Day, I will be highlighting one song that defines Christmas for me and my family. Hopefully, some of these songs will be an inspiration to you and your family as well.

Day 6 – Frank Sinatra – The voice of New York.

Christmas Songs by Sinatra  Song – O little town of Bethlehem

Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love
Oh morning stars together, proclaim thy holy birth.
And praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on earth.

Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.

Frank Sinatra is my vision of class and sophistication.  Maybe its’s because i am a Yankees fan, but when i hear sinatra’s house, i think of winning and happiness.  =)

Today i was stressing the week and then i realized that i get to look forward to stories of our Saviors birth and life!  =)  -PJSLB

Northside Christian Church Children’s Christmas Play

Visited our old church to watch my nephews in their Christmas play on the birth of Jesus. It was funny and the kids did a great job.
