Christmas Joy

Some moments of parenting are downright awful.  And some are simply.....sublime.  Transcendent, even.  The 47 seconds of this video are like that.  Perfection.

Elizabeth plays the Angel Gabriel in her preschool class's production of the Christmas story.  If you didn't already know that she was being educated by Baptists, the way she punches out the word "JESUS" at the end of her line of dialogue with that unmistakably Baptist inflection leaves no doubt on the matter.  I've watched this 1,000 times already.  Make sure your volume is all the way up.

Oh my goodness. I don't know which is better-- her timing and natural talent or your use of the verb "punches". So very perfect.
