Nativity play

Today was Jo's first nativity play, and she was the Angel Gabriel. None of the kids had anything to say: one of the teachers read out the story, and they sang along to / did actions to a bunch of Christmas songs and carols. But it was lovely, and she was so happy.

She was, however, yawning through most of it, and so were we. This could have been something to do with the fact that we were (all, including Miri) up at 0210 this morning, and none of us got a whole bunch more sleep, though Moo, bless her, let me get back to sleep for an hour or so after we all got up. Jo was in with me, Miri with Moo. Miri would burst into tears every time Moo told her it was still night-time. Jo came up with the line "But Daddy, angels don't sleep..." (and wouldn't be convinced that little girls who were going to be playing angels not only do sleep, but also _need_ sleep).

So, they're both knackered, and so are we.

Just wonderful! School nativity plays are great!

I persuaded Jon to be an angel in our storytelling service yesterday- a 6' 3" angel- dressed in a long robe ( bed sheet) with the obligatory tinsel on his head ( he made himself a halo!)...

I suspect that Jo was much cuter!
