Sloan Christmas




This year was our family's turn to read the Christmas story (Luke 2). Bryan prepped Lucy to say the "Glory to God in the highest" line. When it came time, he pointed to her and Lucy happily said, "Glory to Noah!" We all laughed. She tried again. "Glory in the highest of the Lord!"
