Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Woohoo, we finally made it through our annual children's Christmas play. It was a hoot. We had our head angel forget to be wired for sound, so he had to shout. One of the preschool sheep pulling all the tails of the other animals in the barn until one of the donkey's lost theirs. (my 7-year-old) got bored and is sure he caught on video what looks like an angel practicing Tae Kwon Do hand blocks. Near the end of the play the stable walls (made from foam board) cracked and fell down. (I didn't think Jesus was born in Jerico?) The piece that took the cake though was one of the preschooler's costumes... The preschoolers were dressed as sheep, donkeys, cows, and camels. You will never guess what the director of the play let her very spoiled daughter come as... and I giggle every time we think about it. Are you ready to guess .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... A PIG!!! So in honor of this little faux paux I have composed another verse to the song sung by our little animals last night. It is to the tune of the " Friendly Beasts " I said the little pig unclean I was brought as a gift by a gentile king Not knowing the Jews would find me obscene I said the little pig unclean. :-) I'm not being mean, just rolling with the funniness of it all. You also have to understand the mindset of the director, for whom everything must be perfect.
