Pre-School Christmas Program

We went to the granddaughter's Christmas program last night. All the children were dolled up and duded out. In fact, one little 3 or 4 year old girl had on a spaghetti strap dress with long white satin gloves that went up past her elbows. I couldn't see if she were wearing high heels. Anyway, back to the program. Before it started, Toots came back to our seat several times to tell us "things". She said they are to talk loudly enough so that the people on the back row can hear them. Another time she had to go potty. I was elected to take her. Since I am not familiar with the lay out, I asked the minister where the restrooms were. He led us to the area while Toots booms out, "I told my Mimi that they were over here." The program begins with her class up first. The teacher/administrator apologized before they began saying they had had only two weeks to work on the poems/songs. Well, when the group began, you could pick out Toots immediately. She was the one with the loud voice. In fact, she was the only one who knew the poems. We sat proud and embarrassed at the same time. At the end of each recitation she made this cute little face as if to say, "I'm just so cute and special!" For the closing number for the evening, all of the classes assembled on the stage and the floor to sing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." Because they were spread out so much they couldn't hear one another and ended up sounding as if they were doing a round. We weren't sure where Joslyn was, but as soon as they started singing, we could pick her out. And her group finished the "round" last. Guess you could say she has a future in projecting her voice.
