What works for us Wednesday

A patient teaching staff at Promise.

Last night was our Christmas program, which Promise does each year. We have been looking forward to this evening. It's at a local church which has a huge beautiful sanctuary. The kids sing songs and if they can't sing they just look cute!
Tommy and Liam were angels to the shepherds. Along with their buddies in their age group at Promise. They wore white shirts and had white wings with small gold halos. Beautiful. Just absolutely adorable and beautiful and precious.
Until....
Neither baby wanted to 'wait' in the 'waiting area'
Until....
Liam wanted teacher Hannah's microphone which she was going to use to read the verses.
And....
Tommy started to rip his angel wings and eat them
And....
Liam twisted his halo into an oragami creature of unknown species
And....
Tommy screamed, and screamed, and screamed
And.....
Liam layed down on the stage and flopped around in misery over no microphone
And.....
Liam screamed, and screamed, and screamed
Since daddy was conveniently at the back of the sanctuary video taping and taking pictures (which I will definitely be taping over), I was just a tad bit anxious over their behavior (and I was stuck on stage holding them).
The teaching staff at Promise never were concerned. In fact, Sherri the Director, thanked the 'choir' for their performance. Evelynn you are always a great help to me too! Thank you Promise, for more memories. And for your patience and love to ALL kids.
