Singing Lesson
Today is a very great day! The day is so great because we are going to visit our friends and sing Christmas carols for them. It is going to be one more Christmas service. We are very excited!
All our Christmas team is together in our house. We put on our special costumes. I put on a costume of Father Frost. I have a Father Frost’s long red coat, big red mittens with gold stars on them, a red hat, and a beautiful white beard. I look amazing in this costume!
Betsy is a Snow Maiden today. She is in a wonderful blue winter dress with silver snowflakes on it and a silver hat. My sister looks very pretty!
Mikky and Archie are my reindeer today. They put on funny brown jumpsuits with big brown horns. Mikky and Archie have a lot of fun in these jumpsuits.
And guess what Mary is today? She is a snowflake! She puts on a beautiful silver dress, silver gloves, a silver hat and a silver scarf.
We are very happy. We take a lot of pictures of each other and make selfies of us all together.
Mommy comes to our room with Timmy.
“Oh, you look so wonderful in these costumes, dear puppies!” she says. “What are you going to do today?”
“Today is another day of our Christmas service, Mom.” Betsy explains. “We are going to visit our friends’ houses and sing Christmas Carols for them.”
“And give them our gingerbread as a present!” Mikky says.

“Oh, this is so nice!” mother says.
“Mrs. Matilda, I know that you are a famous singer. Would you please give us a singing lesson?” Mary asks.
“Of course, I will happily do that! But first can you sing a carol for me?”
“Yes! Mrs. Matilda!” Mary answers.
“What carol are we going to sing?” I ask my Christmas team.
“Let’s sing Carol of the Bells ”. Archie says.
“Okay, I love this carol! Let’s sing it!” I answer. “Are you okay with that, puppies?”
“Yes!” the puppies answer.
We sing ‘Carol of the Bells ’. Mommy listens and smiles.
When we finish singing, Mary asks:
“Mrs. Matilda, please tell us the truth, do we sing well? I am afraid that we sing bad, because we are not professional singers!”
Mommy looks at Mary and smiles and says:
“Well, puppies here is my singing lesson for you, please listen very carefully.”
“We are listening, Mrs. Matilda.” Mary says.
“You do not have to be a professional singer to sing Christmas carols well. Every puppy in the world can sing Christmas carols well. Even little puppies like Timmy can sing them very well. You just need to know the words of the song and the melody by heart.”
“Is it really that simple?” Archie asks.
“You need to know the words and the melody… and one little secret!”
“What secret Mommy?” Betsy and I ask.
