joy to the world, hark the herald angels sing and here comes santa clause!

for the 12 days of Christmas we always call my grandparents in Virginia and sing Christmas Songs. Today my dad asked me to sing a solo.

I said no.

then he got mad at me.

Then I said only if mom sings with me.

Then my mom got mad at me.

so i sang this. cheesy I know and it  sounded pretty lame but i love the song...

After i sang it I heard my beautiful, inspirational, incredible example of a grandmother say "that brought tears to my eyes."

i thought she was either kidding or I had misunderstood (she is sometimes difficult to understand because she has this).  PLUS... i had never seen/heard her cry.

But alas. she was crying.

I'm here to tell ya. It's all about family and the gospel. nothing else matters, possessions have little to no importance and all that worldly crap means nothing. I made somebody happy today. It's the most wonderful time of the year, deck the halls and Merry Christmas Darling...
