ILS EAGLE NEWLETTER December 18, 2020 www.immanuel-ed.org
Little children never fail to amaze me. Their brains work in
unique and sometimes strange ways. I’m truly enjoying watching my
grandchildren grow and learn. My little girls (7 and 6) are full of
sparkles, unicorns, polish and hugs. My boys, aged 4, 3, and 2 are
not so predictable. They are a trio who can come up with more
challenges than the girls ever did. They ride their dump trucks off
the couch, put their chairs on the treadmill and turn it on. They
laugh when they’re thrown off in a jumble and go back for more.
Sometimes, I just can’t figure out how their brains operate - or
how they survive. I’m glad there are three of them. One of my
favorite moments with the boys are the times when they show their
love. One insists on only giving kisses on a forehead. I didn’t
understand it until his mom asked him about it. His sim-ple but
poignant response was this. “I like to kiss you on the forehead so
my love sinks into you.” I love that boy! The other part of that
story is that he likes to deliver those kisses right after eating
pancakes or waffles. His lips are sticky with syrup - every time.
Despite our best efforts to wipe his mouth before he delivers his
kiss, there’s always a sticky mess on my head afterward. His mom
asked him about that too. (Grandma’s don’t need to ask about that
stuff. We just soak up the love!) His answer there was also simple.
“It’s so my kiss sticks to you forever.” Oh, to think like a child!
Simple, exact, sure and true. There’s joy in that logic. That’s my
prayer for you and your family this Christmas. I pray that God’s
love manifested in the Holy Child lying in Bethlehem’s manger sinks
into you, and that it sticks with you forever! A Most Blessed
Christmas! Sue Domeier

General Music Class News
Immanuel students making music to share: Recently, Immanuel’s
school chorus and grades 1, 2, 3 and 4 recorded some songs in
church that are for sharing with you and others. A piece by the
school chorus played before last week-end’s worship services
(https://immanuel-ed.org/streaming 12/13/20).
Watch Immanuel’s social media for songs by grades K, 1, 2, 3 and
4. You can also find videos of these songs now on your student’s
Google Music Classroom under CLASSWORK: K-“Away in a Man-ger”, Gr.
1-“Stand on the Rock”, Gr. 2-“Thank You, Lord”, Gr. 3- “Angels We
Have Heard on High” and “Friday Song”, and Gr. 4 – “Away in a
Manger” and “Friday Song”. A song by our Gr. 7-8 Chancel Ringers
was played for preservice at the 12/9 Wednesday Advent service.
Thanks for your music, students!
