The Baby Cousins’ Busy, Busy Weekend

On Friday night, C and NC went to see “Finding Nemo on Ice” together.
And this morning they curled up together in a quiet corner of the church nursery to tell secrets to each other.
The girls are both going to play little lambs in the Christmas Eve pageant at our church. (It’s possible that real, actual angels may descend from on high to attend the pageant, just because they want to get a peek at the cuteness first-hand.) E has been tapped to play Joseph, cousin M is a wise man, I think, and I am going to try to convince 14 year old J to put on some sort of Nativity-scene-appropriate costume so she can herd the two little sheep around up on the altar/stage during the performance.

Be sure to post pictures of your little lambs. Lorelei got to be Mary at our church’s Advent workshop on Friday night.

Heh. This reminds me of the Wise Man scandal at the Episcopal church I grew up in. Year after year, kids were in the Christmas pageant, working their way up from lamb to donkey to shepherd to – if they were really talented – the prize part of Wise Man, because the Wise Men got to sing solo parts in “We Three Kings.” Then, one fateful year, the pageant direction was handed over to a stage mother who promoted her own kid straight from lamb to Wise Man. Critics of Halliburton can move over, because they have nothing on the mothers of left-behind shepherds.
