Marianna is one of those deceptively shy children. She puts on a convincing performance until you've known her for about 5 minutes, and then she loses the act and turns a little wild. Right now she is in a singing kick so "wild" means running around the house, blasting a song away at the top of her lungs. Mostly she's into Disney songs, but I was able to talk her into singing this one for the camera. She calls it "Poppy's Song" because it's the same one we used in the video memorial, and she has loved it from the first time she heard it. I thought I'd share.

Angie, That is absolutely precious! So good that these words of Truth are in her heart at such a young age!
Oh. My. Word. That was the sweetest thing!
Angie! This is so precious. It had me in tears--it is so sweet how she knows the words and seems to believe them with all her little heart.

That was very sweet...sweet girlie
I really don't think that I've heard anything so adorable and touching as your sweet little girl singing such an awesome song! Thankyou for sharing!!! God Bless You!
Angie--I don't get to see this side of Marianna at church-she is a cutie! Thanks for sharing!
Oh my goodness, Angie! What a little tool of pure felicity! She is so adorable and endearing. I love how she crescendos with "...and like a flood" and then dramatically quiets her tone at the end. :) The blocks are a nice emphasis on her amazing multi-tasking skills. And who does she hire for wardrobe?...stunning! Truly, I loved it! I've already watched it three times.
If that isn't the most precious sight ever... I have chills and tears and smiles... thanks, Marianna. You are a rockstar for Jesus - and Poppy. :)
I love this! She is so matter of fact the whole time. I love her choice of costume for the performance, too!
Oh my goodness how sweet it is!! What an absolute doll! Thank you so much for sharing her with us.

Oh Angie,
Marianna is absolutely precious singing "Poppy's song"! I cried the 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd time I watched it. This is a sweet and pure reflection of your home. I was just thinking about how proud your grandfather would have been of you and Nathan raising your daughter, even at this young age, to love Jesus. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Love, Yvette

BEAUTIFUL!
Oh my word, I have goosebumps! She is so precious! It is so amazing to see children woshipping God. They are so authentic and I think we can learn a lot from them! Marianna is such a gift, though I am sure I don't have to tell you that!
Oh my...she is incredible. That was beautiful!!

Angie... this is the most precious thing I have ever seen! She was pretty on key and my favorite part was when she put her sweet little hand over her heart and turned her head for a dramatic affect. :)
I thought of sweet Poppy yesterday while my daughter was on a field trip. We live in California, which the Poppy is the California State Flower. The location for the field trip had poppies blooming everywhere. I actually took a picture of it, then realizing that although I think of little Poppy Joy often, I do not know you personally therefore do not have a way to share the picture. I guess now I will have my own little poppy garden to see each time I see the photo. Thinking of your adorable family! And the singing is absolutely precious.
angie,
how precious!! sweetest thing for such a young girl...thanks for sharing. god bless
Angie - that was beautiful. To see such a little girl sing such a beautiful song (& do such a good job). Does she give voice lessons? Thank you for sharing it made me smile & made my day. Livona
Why can't we all love God in this innnocent yet real and trusting way???? Thank you so much for sharing this!
Well, there you go....
PRECIOUS! Now my husband is singing the song! What a sweet blessing you have there!
Sweet sweet girl! How thankful I am to have seen this and read about your life for the past few months. I am moved deeply by your faith and love for God. Thank you for your inspiration.
I am SUCH the proud aunt!!!

That is one of the sweetest things I've ever seen! She's precious!
I LOVE it when she hugs herself at the beginning. She is so charming!!!!!!!! Lucy is watching and just giggling away.
Angie,
I have to say that was the cutest thing I have ever seen. I had to call Kailey and Allison in the room to watch the video and they loved it too - I can't stop smiling thinking about it.
Marianna is precious! And I love "Poppy's song" just the say Poppy's big sister sings it!
Love you friend,
Kim
P.S. I can't wait to read Poppy's book!

Love you,
