Please read this story and watch the amazing video!!! :)

While at the mall a couple of years ago, my then four year old nephew, Spencer, saw kids lined up to see Santa Claus. Having been taught as a toddler that Christmas is the holiday that Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus, he asked his mom, "where's the line to see Jesus"? My sister mentioned this to my dad, who immediately became inspired and jotted words down to a song in just a few minutes. After putting music to the words, and doing a quick recording at home, he received a great response from friends. He sent the song off to Nashville without much response, except for a Christian song writer who suggested adding a bridge at the end of the first chorus. My dad then asked if I wanted to record the song to see what we could do with it. I listened to the song, made a few changes to the words to make it flow better, and we headed to Shock City Studios. It was at the studio where Chris, owner and producer, rewrote the 2nd verse and part of the chorus... with goosebumps and emotions high, we were all hopeful and felt like we had something special. The demo was recorded in just under 2 hours and sent off again to Nashville... still no response. Then 2 weeks before Christmas last year, my cousins Greg and Robbie decided to do a video to see what we could accomplish on YouTube. The first day we had 3000 hits and it soared from there. We received e-mails, phone calls, Facebook messages from people all over asking for the music, CD's, iTunes, anything... we had nothin'. After a couple of meetings with Chris following the amazing response, we got serious. We headed back into the studio this past spring... this time with guitars, drums, bass, pianos, choirs... the real deal.... and here we are today. Getting iTunes set up, a website put together, and loving that thousands upon thousands of Christians have come together... remembering the true meaning of Christmas. Out of the mouths of babes come profound truths that many adults can not understand. Hopefully Spencer's observation will cause people all over to reflect on the love of Jesus, and that one day we will all stand in line to see Him. We are most thankful to our Heavenly Father to have this chance to share our music with you. Merry Christmas everyone.

Silence
Hey All!
So this weekend I had lots of time for silence.....for me that can be either a good or a bad thing. This time it wasnt all that good at all. Let me back track....
Soooo you all know how I publicly stated on this blog that i needed to set up my first counseling appt right? Well we FINALLY did. The counselor at my church was leaving and a new girl was coming in so there was a little adjustment period. So during this silent time this weekend all i could think about was having to spill my guts, to a counselor, which means reliving all that happened in those really bad months. Lovely right? No. In my heart I know that going to counseling is going to be good for me, especially to have a Christian/Catholic counselor, but my mind just wants to ignore it all and push it deeper and further away like it didnt happen. So I am pleading with God to help me get through this....
Will you please pray for me?? My apointment is on Tuesday of this week...
Thank you so much and May God Bless You :)
