She had tried out back in October to play Mary at the PVCP Christmas concert, and tonight would be the big night!
She practiced so very much with Mrs. Cline, and Mrs Cline had such kind words to say about Tatum;
In fact, this was the email I received the next day after we gave her a thank you gift:
SHE DID TOTAL EMBODY MARY with her nurturing way. This night would be never forgotten. …Anyway before the night, we gifted Tot:
We arrived early to save front seats, and the program was waiting. Tot: Top billing!
The first part of the concert led up to Mary and her calling from God.
All the music and was just so inviting and beautiful! Of course, I just couldn’t wait for Tatum to arrive on stage. Oh…wait, here she comes with her hubby, Joseph. (Hayden!!! We love him!)
We awaited for her to speak!
But they first had to be near the angels and manger.
She then prayed and prayed.
We all were speechless. Her speech humbling herself before God as a chosen servant was awe-inspiring.
She then held Baby Jesus as if she was really holding him.
Gulp. Wow. Just ….wow.
Her dear friend Felicity also sang a beautiful solo
After, so many came up to me with so many compliments of her maturity, beauty, and articulate words.
