Singing in the Choir

This past weekend was a whirlwind of activities at The Avery House. With my job at my church, I help to coordinate the children's Sunday School program including teacher and assistant training, schedules, etc. as well as weekly lesson plans. Saturday was a big training day for teachers and assistants, and Sunday was our Rally Day in which we had a big festival of fun activities to kick off the start of our Sunday School year. Rally Day was a huge success and we all had a wonderful and exciting time. But the highlight of our weekend was Emma-Caroline becoming an official member of the choir at our church.

 I was very proud of her going to the choir room before services to put on her robe and to prepare without so much as a whine that she didn't want to do it. She is very serious about her role as a member of the choir and she did a wonderful job. Our Director of Music at the church is amazing and Emma-Caroline has already learned so much from him. He also played the organ instrumentals at our wedding, so we are thrilled to also have Mr. Garvey as Emma-Caroline's choir director. It all just comes full circle and is such a moment of happiness and amazement. We look forward to hearing our girl sing each Sunday as she continues as a member of the choir.
