Yesterday was our last time to sing together at Preakness. Sad to say, the morning started out on a bad note. I wasn't used to singing harmony against 100 other voices and I completely lost it on the first song, which unfortunately was not a good way to start out when I was particularly nervous about it anyway. But as the morning went on and my nerves calmed down, I did do much better. Ryan said I was "spot on" doing the harmony to the chorus of his song "Oh How Wonderful Are You, Jesus". And about the last song of the morning worship (Always), he said I nailed it. Listening back to it on the recording, I do think we did it at least as good as the normal worship band at church (on the last song). So that was quite encouraging to me!
I am happy with the progress I've made this past year, and especially how much I've improved even in the past 2 months! It's exciting when Darryl and the boys tell me how nice I sound. :) Ryan even said he felt like he was singing with a legit singer lately. That was an awesome compliment. So, even though I started out making a fool of myself yesterday, I ended it strong and victorious. I did a good job and I conquered many fears! To God be the glory!
The boys left this morning, and I cried myself a river. The house is quiet and empty again. It will take some time to get used to it all over again. My life is changing again, huh? Just as the boys are leaving I find I am about to have Dana and Ethan here as frequent guests. More new things to get used to...
It will be nice having my daughter and grandson here (and the dog).
