Our Son, the Rap Star

In the last couple years I’ve come to appreciate the music/ministry of a couple of guys called Flame and Lecrae. They are Christian rappers, and their lyrics are solid in theology and very educational. I did a little post about it on my personal blog awhile back (read it here)

Anyway, listening to this has affected our four year old rock star wanna-be. He’s been singing/rapping a tune called “Redeemed” from Flame which begins with a hook that says: “Jesus did it, I’ve been re-, I’ve been, I’ve been redeemed.” He wanted me to video it and “put it on the fam’ly blog.” So here it is. I also put a link to a youtube version of the actual song from Flame so you can compare.

What do you think? Is this boy gonna be a star or what?

The Horse/Rabbit Whisperer

Congrats to our youngest girl, the local animal expert. Over the weekend she attended the local 4H Achievement Day and won in both categories she entered. She won a blue ribbon in Rabbit Showmanship with Pepe, one of the rabbits she’s raising. And she won a blue and gold ribbon in Horse Judging, which qualifies her for the Regionals. Go KJ!
