Eli's Christmas Program

Last week Eli's teacher mentioned that their Christmas Program would be held on Tuesday, and she wanted to know if I was going to bring Eli (since he doesn't attend school on Tuesday). I, thinking that his class was too young to actually be in the program, said no, I wasn't planning on it. Well, Tuesday afternoon arrived and she called to let me know that the program had been rescheduled for Wednesday, she wanted to let me know in case we wanted to stay for it. Then the light bulb that has been dull in my brain for weeks now flashed on, Eli's class IS in the program. I felt like a real doof. ANYWAY, Ben and I dropped Eli of at his class and then headed into the main hall to wait for the program. I must say that I am very glad we attended. The children are no older than 4, and they all did a marvelous job singing Christmas songs and representing the birth of Jesus. Eli's class's part was the very last song. They came out with little reindeer hats on their heads. SO CUTE! Of course my child refused to wear the reindeer hat and began to cry as soon as he turned around and saw all of those parents staring at him. I definitely do not see a drama career in his future. The program was still wonderful and a great joy to watch. I haven't smiled so much in weeks!! (Sorry there aren't any pictures, but Eli's class was sitting on the floor in front of the stage so all we could see were the tops of their heads!!)
