Merry Christmas to Everyone

Hello Bloggers,

     Hard to believe the end of another year is fast approaching.  However, the directorship and membership of the BX/Swan Lake Community Association would like to wish everyone "Merry Christmas" and all the best in the upcoming year ahead.

     This month a couple that are completely deaf were given a true gift, when their daughter signed the lyrics of her Christmas concert.  (She is the young blonde girl in the middle of the picture.)  She conveyed the emotion of the lyrics with her facial expressions as well.  So the link is below for all to peruse.

(only 3 minutes and 41 seconds in length.)
Even in the comments the appreciation is shared as one writes:
"They've just showed this video on national Brazilian television, over 150 million people in the country have seen it... Just great !"

Of course the local station had a follow up:

Such a great gift (and no line up waiting required.)
Merry Christmas indeed.
