It really was perfect. We had lots more people at the service than last year, surely drawn by the lure of the pageant. There were even —gasp— church folks without children! We haven't had a pageant at church in recent memory and I think it filled a hole in the hearts of the families that nothing else could have. I don't think I've ever been as proud as I was watching all our small people rise to the occasion. It was truly beautiful and though it couldn't be completely captured on film, I'm so glad we got a video too, to spark my memory of how fantastic it was. And none of it would have happened without Rivka. For that I am SO grateful. Thank you!
