We had our annual Sunday School Christmas Program today. Smartie is the type of child who needs lots of prepping for anything out of routine, so we had lots of discussions about what to expect. At her first Christmas program last year, she hid under the bench and cried. And at the Easter program, she refused to sing but also refused to come back down when her class was done and had to be carried off.
Her teacher told me she cried at practice yesterday, so I was really worried about how she would react. Well, she got up and sang every song with gusto, doing all the actions and smiling away! She did great for the individual-class portion, but wouldn't get back on stage for the grand finale with the whole Sunday school. But all in all it went really well.
I realized today that our current high school group has 26 students combined, which is about the same size of our current 3-year-old class (21.) When Smartie is a senior and Sweetie is a freshman, there will be almost 80 in the high school group. They won't be able to fit the whole Sunday school in for the grand finale by then. It really is a growing church.
One other thing, I forgot to update about the girls' weight checks this week. Smartie gained 2 pounds in 2 months, and Sweetie gained 1.5 pounds in 2 months. The Dr. looked over our food diary and was happy with what he saw. He wants me to continue with the whole milk-half and half mix and continue weighing weekly at home (I have a scale accurate to 1/2 ounce) but as long as I see a gaining trend he doesn't need to see them again. Yay!

Congratulations on a succesful program! I can't believe the difference in what the Bible class will be by the time our kids are there! That is amazing! We are blessed with an awesome church!
Also, congratulations on the weight gain girls!
