It was a week before Christmas 2001. To our shame, all five of us Rockey children had not gotten Mom or Dad much of anything for Christmas! (Bad children..bad, bad children!)

Then, Robby, my ingenious sister-in-law, threw out an idea. "You know your Mom has wanted you all to play together for a long time.you should record something for her." We all had to agree.it was a brilliant idea!

We picked three of Mom's favorite church songs and threw them together in a day. It was rough at times, we had never recorded together before. Not all five of us!
But something was born. something we all wanted.

The next Christmas (2002) we did it right! We planned ahead!! We picked six songs, most of which were mine. We had the time of our lives recording together. There were no Rockey children not involved.
It was magic!!

What an amazing family I have been blessed to be born into! We've all taken that for granted too much at times.

But not then.
Not during Christmas 2002.
