AWESOME KIDS


























I love our little country church!  The folks there are like a big extended family, where everyone knows everybody else and we all try to take care of each other the best we can.

But we have one great asset that many small rural congregations don't have...lots of young people and lots of kids!

And, I would guess, an unusual amount of musical talent.

While we have many adults, college students, and older teens who can play and sing amazingly, we also have some younger talent that is just beginning to surface.

One of the funnest (is that a word?) events we have in our church is the annual youth-sponsored talent show.  It's a casual, fun opportunity for anyone in the church to share. 

We had many great performances, but most precious to me are the ones from our younger kids, many of whom this is their first time to sing in public.

Here are 4 videos of the younger performers that will make your heart smile!

Enjoy!!!

 




























These sisters are seasoned performers, but I never cease to be amazed at the talent and poise they have at such tender ages.  Ivy is a freshman in high school and Sophie is in middle school.  They have a real, live, bona fide band named "Ivy Dean and the Twilights" and, besides performing all over the state and elsewhere, they have recently been doing several shows in Nashville! 

When they make it big, we will say we knew them when...

Pure country gospel out of the mouths of two of the sweetest girls you will ever meet!
































Little Sadie will be 5 years old this summer.  What an adorable child and smart as a whip too!  I thought she did great for her first time singing solo in our church!

































These two 6-year-old best friends, Hannah and Abby, are especially dear to me!  They are so cute singing the Hannah Montana song, "The Climb." 

Love it!  And love these two sweeties!!!
































And last...but certainly not least...3-year-old Anna even got in on the act with her own rendition of "Away in a Manger."

AMEN!
