Christmas Program

A few weeks ago I got a letter from Aiden's school that said the students had been working hard on practicing their performance in a Christmas Program.  Aiden never mentioned it (he doesn't usually give up information about school, so I wasn't surprised).  I asked him about it a few times and he acted like he didn't know anything about it.  Eventually, he told me they practiced on the stage in music class.  I asked what songs they sang and more detailed questions, but got very little information from my preschooler.  We were anxious about the program to see what he was actually going to do.  Each class sang a few songs and some children recited bible verses and did solos.  To no surprise, Aiden had no speaking parts.  Aiden stood very still and would sing on and off throughout the songs.  It was mostly the girls in his class whose voices were heard.
It was so much fun to watch all the kids on stage.  The 2 year old class had one boy shout out in the middle of their song "Mom" as he had been searching the crowd for his mom and finally had found her.  The whole room laughed.  One of the toddlers fell and cried through her song.  Ty loved watching everybody and when Jeff asked him if he wanted to go sing, he was ready to leave his seat and run on stage.
