• Jun. 9, 2008 - Frogs - One of God's Wonders

We set our frogs free today except for the smallest one.  We are going to keep her for awhile. Mei named it Mei so it must be a her.  They really seemed ready to go.

Jump! Jump! You are free!

Last Friday, we attended a dance recital that several of dear friends were in.  My dear friend Jill has two daughters that participated.  This past January, her daughter Erin asked for prayer in guidance in picking a song for a dance solo.  It was right after I had asked God what it meant to glory him.  He answered by saying this next song on my MP3 player was how.  It was "In Wonder" by the Newsboys.  I almost cry every time I hear it now because I know it is from God.  I suggested it to Erin.  I could just see her twirling to the song in my mind.

Her dance was accepted and she danced it for me and the audience on Friday night.  It was so beautiful.  Erin came up with the dance herself.  Her sister helped her with the closing movements, which Erin forgot - so she made up her own movements for the end.  That is my favorite part because it seems more worshipful and personal.   I was quite a way back in the audience so I got some heads in the pictures, but here she is... A wonder of God...  Thank you my dear sweet sister in Christ.

I will have to show my daughter the 2 little frogs. She LOVES frogs and collects them. The dance recital was awesome too.

Her costume was so modest. If my daughter could dress like that, I'd let her go to dance lessons.

I really wanted my dd to take classes with this teacher, but she didn't want to learn. The teacher ballet as worship dance. They only use Christian music for practice and performance. All wear long dresses or pants. All the dresses have pants of some type under than so if they twirl they are appropriately dressed. I have been very impressed with her work. Maybe you can find something similar near you.
