This morning was our annual Family Christmas Performance at a Rest Home. We've had this tradition for as far back as I can remember. Basically we just go and sing, dance, or whatever and completely embarrass ourselves for about 1 1/2 hours. Then afterwards we visit with the residents and spread a little holiday cheer with them. Since I'm the shy one in the family, I usually can't wait for the performance to be done and over with, and then I'm happy because I won't have to sing for anyone for at least another year... This year is a little different for me, although I'm still quite happy to have Bryan's and my duet finished with, I think that for the first time I am actually appreciating this little tradition and maybe even beginning to like it. What an amazing feeling it brings to me just knowing that because I went out of my comfort zone for a few minutes, that I helped to brighten someone's elses day. And for me, it's totally worth it!
