Aubrey's Violin recital

So yesterday was Aubrey's first violin recital and she did a great job. She played with the entire group of kids that take lessons from our bishops wife and she got to play "Jingle Bells" and "Jolly Old St Nick". She has only been playing since September so she didn't know all the other songs they played yet, but she will. So the first one was at the hospital here in Parker. They played in the lobby for all the visitors and patients. Then they went over to a nursing home here and that was precious.

Anyone that knows Aubrey will understand this. So after they were all done she took the time to go up to every single resident there and give them a hug and sit and talk to them for a few minutes. Our bishop was there and said to me " your daughter is in there giving hugs" I told him to just wait and I'd have to drag her out of there because she'd stay all night if I let her. So sure enough almost everyone else had left and I walked into the dining room and there was Aubrey standing next to an elderly lady with her arms around her just talking to her and her table full of friends. So I told her we had to go home and do homework and get ready for school in the morning and of course she was sad to go but not as sad as the residents were to see her go. The bishop then said to her and I "Do you realize what you have done for these people, not one person in there doesn't have a smile on there face now after you have given them a hug and a small piece of your time" That is Aubrey she loves to give of herself and doesn't even realize she's doing it. Anyway she did a great job and I'm very proud of her and even more proud to be her mom. She is the best example I could ever ask for.
