Where we live, three different congregations share the same building. So, we rotate starting times each year. Last year we met at 1 PM. Today we began a year of meeting at 9 AM.
I definitely prefer going to church in the morning, but the adjustment today was a little rough. We were a tad late.
But, we made it. And as I sat there, I realized how wonderful it felt to start the new year off in church, worshiping my Savior Jesus Christ. And that was a sweet Joyful Moment for me there.
Today has actually been a really nice day, with plenty of Joyful Moments. But, I'm just going to share one more.
As you know, Sweet P has been taking violin lessons for quite some time. Just over two years. She is learning via the Suzuki method. She has been on Book 1 this whole time. Tonight, she finally learned the last two measures of the last song in the book. It still has quite a bit of polishing needed, but it's a super long song. And she has the whole thing memorized! She has worked so hard to get to this point and I was seriously busting with pride for her.
Huge Huge Huge HUGE Joyful Moment for us both.
Wishing you all Joyful Moments that are HUGE!
Oh, and a Happy New Year!

I'm very proud of Sweet P; it represents countless hours of work for her (and her mama). I can't wait to hear her play again.
My JM was similar - Your Aunt Becky and her mom gave us a mini-concert, playing 3 duets on the cello and piano. We loved it.
Oh, I bet that was beautiful!
It was beautiful... and peaceful.. and joyful.
