Lincoln’s Christmas Finale
Complete with family life and a few oopsies. We hope you laugh as much as we did.
“Silent Night” — piano
Day 22 of Lincoln’s 25 Christmas Songs
** We got home after 10 pm last night and a tired Lincoln pushed forward, recording his video and began the upload before falling into bed. He got up this morning to discover that it didn’t finish uploading last night —- internet issues.
I am so proud of his commitment to this project.
“Go Tell it on the Mountain” — piano
Day 17 of Lincoln’s 25 Days of Christmas Songs
O Christmas Tree – piano
Day 13 of Lincoln’s 25 days of Christmas carols
Rachel’s piano recital
My dear girl played “O Come Emmanuel” at the Christmas Recital last Friday. She played beautifully.
.
I promised her that I wouldn’t take a picture while she played because it would make her more nervous. But the deal was that she had to pose at the piano so I could get a picture afterward.
She didn’t count on me making her sit and pose this way and that, while I tried this camera setting and that camera setting.
This is her long-suffering look . . . .“If I just breathe in and out, in and out . . . .my mama will get this done . . .eventually.”
.
.
I sensed that she needed a bit of loosening up. So I asked her to look at me and wink. I though she might smile at me.
Instead I got this very serious wink.
A wink that she held for much longer than any wink should be held.
Probably because she knew it would take awhile for me to mess with my camera.
The first 7 of 25 Days
My 13 yo son, Lincoln, decided he wanted to record himself playing a different Christmas song each day of December up until Christmas. He has been sharing his recordings on Google +, but I decided to share them here for those relatives not on Google +.
You will see Lincoln play the piano, hammered dulcimer, cello and strumstick.
If you don’t have time to watch all 7 videos, I recommend my favorites, Day 3 “O Come All Ye Faithful” on dulcimer and Day 5 “O Come Emanuel” on cello.
