I won’t forget the day. Sage was 17 months old and walking around in her jammies one morning carrying her little pink Bible that she received the day she was dedicated to the Lord. She loves that little Bible and says “Bible, Bible” when she carries it. Then all the sudden out of the blue she started singing “Jesus Loves Me”. Mind you, up until this moment we had never heard her sing this song, not even in pieces. And that morning, while holding her Bible she sang all the words to Jesus Loves Me. I grabbed the video camera as fast as I could, but it was low on batteries and shut off!

She sings that song ALL the time and she also loves to sing “Away in a Manger.” I finally was able to capture some of her singing the other day when she decided it was her time to shine in front of the camera. Seth can back me up on this…the girl sings ALL DAY LONG and I’m not going to lie, it makes us happy.

My mother in-law said Sage can carry a tune too, which is quite impressive considering this momma who always sings to her isn’t too musically gifted. I mean, I’ve got nothing people in that department. Somehow, I was lucky enough to marry into a family who has musical talents up the wazoo. If we ever did a Nickerson family special, I would be the one shaking the little egg shaker. along with my brother in-law, who I was happy to find out, is also musically uninclined.

So, here is our girl in her jammies with her crazy morning hair singing her little heart out just for you. (Ignore the array of toys, the nebulizer sitting out and the mess on the table!) Take note, she was very concerned when Seth stopped watching her so he could grab a tissue. She had to stop her singing to make sure he was watching her. Clearly, she is a performer!
