Peanut's debut on stage was last Sunday. Seriously, she was cast in the role four days prior, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The show was Miracle on Main Street, and many of my friends' kids did an excellent job memorizing lines and song after song. I was impressed! Toward the very end of the show, the nativity entered for only about a two minute scene. Simple. Walk out and stand and then walk back. 
Peanut enters and stands for about ten seconds like a deer in headlights. So far so good. Then she catches sight of someone she knows and begins waving with ridiulously great excitement.
Then she continues to look around until she spots us near the front and waves more. Unfortunately, we didn't get pictures of when she turned around to show off her wings to the crowd.
Notice all the other kids stood perfectly still, except one of the other angels who flapped her arms flying for a bit. Mary paid perfect attenton to baby Jesus the entire time. She will make a really good mother someday for sure!

Ty gets lots of attenion from A. She came home to live with her forever family from Russia last year with two brothers. It was so neat to see her brothers along with kids adopted from Ghana and China up on stage singing that night.
Miss Barbara, our friend from church who is our adopted grandma, left this hat for the kids to play with. Ty's been wearing it around saying "Ho Ho Ho! Merry Chriss-us!"
Nope, we're not tiny little tots, but we got away from the tots for K's work Christmas party last weekend. It was a really fun, late evening! (I'm getting old because, honestly, we were home by 11:30.)
Enjoy this beautiful time to celebrate the best gift of all - Jesus, my Savior! Blessings, angela
Angela...you look great! Your family is adorable. Thanks for sharing the pics and the video, so fun!
ReplyDeleteWait until you start leaving parties at 9:00. That's what we did at my work party.
