Gracie in Concert

Gracie has been learning a lot of songs lately. Here she is singing "The Church's One Foundation." In case you can't make out all the lyrics....

"The church's one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord
She is His new creation by water and the Word
From Heaven He came and sought her to be His holy bride
With His own blood He bought her (Gracie skipped this line)
And for her life He died."

Below, Gracie sings "Jesus Loves Me." I knew she knew the first two verses, but I didn't realize that she had learned the third verse until we did this video. Also, she did finish the song, but my camera battery ran out, so we apologize for the abrupt ending. =)

"Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me,
Yes, Jesus loves me,
The Bible tells me so.

Jesus loves me, He who died
Heaven's gate to open wide
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.

Jesus loves me, He will stay
Close beside me all the way
He's prepared a place for me
And someday His face I'll see."

Where does the time go???

Rocky and Gracie are growing so fast!! Rocky is taking his first few cautious steps, and Gracie's vocabulary is multiplying daily! She continues to amaze us with the words and sentences she comes out with. Lately, Lou has been teaching her to sing, "The Church's One Foundation," and believe it or not, she knows it! It's funny to hear her try to sing "foundation" and "creation." I'll have to try to get a video. Rocky is talking, too, with a word here or there (see video below). These are just some "everyday" pictures from hanging out at the house.

Rocky likes to be up high. Gracie used to like it, too, but now she's getting scared!

Gracie and Rocky with their winter scarves that Grandma made for them! I love this picture of Gracie even though she has her eyes shut. She's so dramatic sometimes. Both she and Rocky love the snow. It actually snowed yesterday, and for a while, they just stood on the couch and watched it snow! They like to watch Lou shovel, too, because he'll throw snowballs at the window. They love that!

My current favorite picture of Rocky!

Gracie has been learning the b-i-b-l-e song, and as you can see below, Rocky has been learning it, too! He surprised us one day by finishing the song!
