It's time for another Friday's Fave Five (hosted by
Susanne at Living to Tell the Story).
My Fave Five this week:-
1. On Saturday, we celebrated
our delightful daughter, Alyssa's 18th birthday and graduation. She's such a beautiful blessing to our family and to the world ♥! We had a pleasant surprise at the graduation/birthday party. My husband composed a song for Alyssa earlier in the day (nobody knew about it). At the end of the program, he played the piano and sang his song to her. So sweet and special!
2. The slideshow that Alyssa put together for her graduation, accompanied by the songs "Lord of Eternity" by Fernando Ortega and "Consider the Cost" by Steve Camp, was precious and made people cry. Her speech was totally God-honoring and inspiring.
3. We've enjoyed having a Chinese exchange student with us for the past 2 weeks. She will turn 15 tomorrow. Hope she will like the gifts we have for her :). Yesterday, we had a wonderful time watching a talent show performed by all the Chinese exchange students. Piano playing. Acting (skits). Singing. Illusion. Lots of fun.
