Chorus began again today! Hoorah for singing!!! I can't believe I had over 60 kids in my room...and that's only HALF the group! The other half comes tomorrow. Today we began some holiday tunes, and I honestly thought when they were singing the divine words of, "Joy to the World," and "Silent Night," that it was a Choir of Angels. We also worked on, "Over the Rainbow." I thought to myself, "Wow. Great job choosing kids who sing really well this year!" Sometimes I let my emotions get the best of me and push that kid who really can't sing into choir, just because. This year I was more strict and turned 39 singers away as they just weren't up to par. Now here we are, 130+ singers, including some new faces who weren't at my school this year. Here we go!!! Wee!!!!!Tuesday, August 18, 2009

Hmm, I think I might go crazy having to sing Christmas songs in August. ;) I'm sure your choir rocks though!!
Thanks so much for your sweet voice message. I'm sorry I'm so bad at calling back. Just know it meant a lot to me! Love you, friend!
Way to go, Autumn. I'm so proud of you using that Berry music degree and teaching the love of music to young people - at home & abroad. Hope to see you Mtn. Day!?
