Our family enjoyed the annual C.H.A.R.M. (Christian Home-school Association of Rocky Mount) Talent Show. A special big thanks to Jennifer Harris for all her hard work organizing the event!
John and Anna played the piano, and all three kids entered art projects.
If you ever want to feel truly humbled as a parent, attend a home-school talent show.
WHOAH! Some of the kids are uber gifted!
I actually had to ask Sarah if her artwork was a photograph or a drawing because it looks so real. Believe it or not, this is a free-hand drawing Sarah made with charcoal. And Sarah is pretty handy with a violin, too. She has a full ride to East Carolina University next year on a music scholarship.
Katelyn and her brother Grant did a fantastic job on this song called You Are My Everything, a song which Katelyn wrote herself. Best wishes on that future in singing, Katelyn!
And I was impressed with Zach, Samuel, Caleb and Sam, who performed Dark Horses by Switchfoot. Samuel (lead singer) will be attending Christian college next year to major in worship ministry.
So the Talent Show concluded the first year of the Barnette Family Homeschool. We don't know what God has in store for our children's education next year... but thank you, Lord, for giving us this experience, so that after being with my three children almost 24/7 for the past 12 months, I know them better and love them more than ever. Thank you for giving us Your grace so that I did not tire of them and they did not tire of me. Thank you for giving us Your knowledge so that they learned, and I learned, too. Thank you for giving us good health, joy, laughter, and comfy days in comfy clothes in a comfy home....together.
Thank you, Lord, for teaching me this year how to make a pearl. :)
