No prom, no problem.

Yep...she did it again. Last night Sierra attended her second jazz festival in which they had another competition, and she brought home this piece of paper that proves how well she did with her talent in playing the piano. There were seven other bands with piano players that played as well, and she was the chosen one!
I'm sorry for bragging about Sierra so much, but she truly is a talented young woman. She didn't even utter the word PROM at all this week. She wasn't interested, and it certainly wasn't on her mind. She has been too busy focusing on practicing her music, the band competition, and the young women kick off. Oh...and the Hunger Games movie too. The weekend has been packed with priorities so we will definitely be watching the movie next week.

I look at all the things she is accomplishing until now, and it makes us feel so, so happy. I feel as if we have done a pretty good job in raising her. We are so proud of her in all the decisions she makes all on her own. She truly strives to live a life of purity, and has a huge heart that has room for more to love. She is a strong girl who lives up to her standards, and her love for music truly defines her personality.

Music is beautiful. 
Music is peaceful.
Music is pure.
Music is strength. 
Music is humble. 
Music is cheerful.
Music is happy.
Does this picture look like a look of disappointment, because she missed her junior prom last night? I think not. This is a look of happy, and if you ask anyone they'll tell you the same thing... she's always jovial.

  1. So proud of the amazing young woman Sierra is. More important than what an amazing musician she is, is how faithful and righteous she is. You've done a fantastic job raising her! You should be proud of yourself and Sierra!

  2. Thank you Katie. She sure is a hard worker both with school, and at church. It's not easy to be a member in New Jersey, but the majority of the youth here are pretty strong. We are please with how faithful she is in keeping her standards HIGH! Love and miss you!
