Today the elementary school age children of our church presented their Christmas Pageant. Don't you just love these things?
They stood in polite rows, they sang many songs, they held up signs depicting the different parts of the play, they read their carefully prepared lines, they gently waved glittery stars on sticks over their heads to end the production. Job well done.
Our son was one of the children in the production.
He wandered about, untucked his white oxford, he sang a few songs but laughed through others, he waved his sign around and around, once tossing it into the aisle so he had to skip down to retrieve it, he did read his lines perfectly but then he wielded his glittery star on a stick like a lightsaber, slashing and thrusting, so that I was a bit concerned about the cherubic little girl standing directly in front of him.
Amazingly enough, they didn't ask us to leave.
