While Shepherds Watched


Our ever-valiant and game-for-anything kindergarten put on a lovely little play about "Whoops-a-daisy" Angel today. We've been going a few years now and I reckon that it was the best one so far. I always have huge admiration for (and, I have to be honest, wonder about the sanity of) the staff in there, who seem to be able to get very, very small children to do what they want them to, without the aid of bribery or threats. Must ask them for a few tips....


It's the first time that the little one has been involved and he just about coped with the fact that we were in the room but he couldn't get to us. Thank goodness for his favourite nursery teacher, who kept him going for the half hour they needed him to be still and not sad. They even got him to move to the manger, as he was a shepherd. And move back again.


So, number two son has trodden the boards (or carpet, actually) for the first time. I wonder if he'll catch the bug in the same way as his big brother has? Don't know if their dad could handle 3 temperamental thespians in the house.....
