this is terrific! :) how do you pull off bringing such blessing with being so hilarious at the same time? at one point i thought bobby was going to knock claire over with his swinging head. it was good hearing your beautiful voices! i hope you feel at home this Christmas in Gakuentoshi. being in a new place myself, i'm learning how Christ alone keeps us content and "at home" in all places and times. miss you a lot and i love to keep you in my prayers. in Christ our Savior, jeana. Merry Christmas!
