Change-Yes & No

We had a great Prime Rib Dinner last evening at the Owens'. It included a green salad, vegetable, deviled eggs and "southern" pie with Avocado candy. Sadie didn't get that much variety but she was very enthusiastic about her pureed veggies. She really loves to eat and has her mouth open, her arms swinging and legs kicking as the spoon approaches. She has also started squealing and likes to hear herself make noises. Her parents have her on a pretty rigid sleep schedule. She was taken up to her bed fairly early with the "white" noise turned on as well as the monitor. We were able to watch from the living room as she rolled around a bit and then went to sleep. Raising a child is much more technical than it was 60 years ago.
The Adult Choir sang at Church this morning under the Direction of Leslie Stratton. Virginia Frazer provided Organ music and Rev. Griger gave an appropriate Advent sermon. Even without familiar old hymns, this was an exception to our more common non-traditional services. We have always prided ourselves in the ability to cope with change, but somehow that doesn't carry over to Church. Our reaction to the contemporary type services is comparable to the way we feel about the way the Star Spangle Banner is sung occasionally by Rock stars. Is nothing sacred anymore???
