Well, more Christmas productions for the Johnson kids. This morning was our church's Children's Christmas program. Peder was a shepherd again this year. This is great to him since he gets to carry a staff (we shepherd mom's gave strict instructions about not using the shepherd's staff as a weapon). Caroline was a sheep this year for the first time. She was pretty cute, but the term "wandering sheep" came to mind a lot during rehearsals or possibly Handel's Messiah "All we like sheep have gone astray...". I wouldn't have agreed to have her in the program at all since she's only 2 1/2 and it's a lot of work for me to corral her. But we were short on stable animals and needed her. Ha!
She will most likely be a sheep (or a cow) next year. Then, since she's a girl, an angel, then a townsperson, and if she's lucky, she could be Mary one year. There is a definite hierarchy in this Christmas program. So, she better play her cards right!
Mark was in it too. He sang with the adult choir and played his violin. I asked him if anyone thought Caroline was too distracting and he said all he heard was that she was so cute and adorable. I wonder....
She found baby Jesus! Wandering and more wandering.
