Sunday night was our church’s annual Children’s Christmas play. The kids were really looking forward to it this year and Leah talked about it non-stop. She was so excited when she had memorized her lines. They all did very well and had a lot of fun! Lucky for you, I have an IPod this year with a video camera for your viewing enjoyment!
Andrew was supposed to be a little star. But the star was itchy and he claimed he was “scared.” (Which really just means he’s 3 and doesn’t want to do something.) At the very last minute he decided he wanted to be an angel like Leah because “he wanted to fly.” So I found an extra costume and let him put it on, even though it looked a little girly. The star would have been cute.
Leah of course had no problem being an angel again this year—her BFF’s were all angels, too.
They both stood on stage really well for the entire 30 minute show.
Leah and the other angels sang “Silent Night.”
As you can see, we have a good little bunch with all different sizes of kids. They each memorized a little mini 4-line poem for their lines.
Andrew and another 3-year-old sang “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.” He nailed it in practice, but on stage he wasn’t exactly with the piano. Still, he stole the show!
They let everyone choose any song to sing and Leah wanted to do “Jingle Bells.” I know, I must teach my children more Christmas carols!!
Santa always makes a visit after the play. Leah and Andrew have seen him 3 times now, so they were old pros. They didn’t really get to tell this Santa much (although rest assured Leah had one more thing in mind to tell him) but he gave them a present. Abigail, as I suspected, was not too excited about the scary guy with a beard!
