Valerie is a 42-year-old, single, Reformed Christian lady who lives in Baltimore. She doesn't remember a time
before she knew and loved Jesus, but she does remember accepting John Calvin into her heart in March of 2000.
Valerie is a member of Christ Reformed Evangelical Church in Annapolis.
Though her career aspiration is to be a housewife, Valerie has not yet found anyone suitable who wishes to hire
her for employment in that field (or, more properly, anyone suitable has not found her), so in the meantime she
earns her daily bread working in communications -- editing, writing, print design and website management.
It's spooky how that one guy sounds EXACTLY like Bob Nalle of Glad.

Someone sent that to me this weekend and it was so funny because we had just been caroling with our church and we had tried to walk and carol so the back of the line didn't know what the front of the line was singing and it was especially noticeable on The 12 Days of Christmas. All the boys and Emily loved the video which is a rare occurrence in our house.

Thanks for sharing this, Valerie.

Apparently this is an ongoing group from Indiana University. The video you link is from their original membership in the 1990's, but the group continues with revolving student membership. (I particularly like the video of them wowing the Hardee's employees with a rendition of Stand By Me.)

Well, I can't believe I missed this when you first posted it, but as my excuse I'll say that since all my kids come running whenever they hear me listening to something, I don't usually click on links like this unless 1) I know exactly what it's going to be about and that I want my kids seeing it, and B) I'm in the mood for being swamped by over half a dozen children.
