Playing Christmas Music at Francois Parc

Mommy and Daddy were so proud of you three tonight!  Ms. Mary asked all of her students to play piano for the residents at Francois Parc.  Caroline volunteered to go first!  My brave girl. :)

Caroline played Joy to the World, Joseph played Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Catherine played The First Noel.  The residents seemed to love the music, and I loved watching you three making others happy through your music.  I hope you always remember that Christmas is about spreading love and kindness to others.  You certainly did that tonight!

Cougars won... woo hoo!

Catherine had to miss school for two days because of fever and headache.  Unfortunately she had to miss her class field trip to LSU.  She wanted to learn how to wrap presents, so I taught her.  

And boy can she wrap a beautiful gift now!
