Miles' Sunday School teacher told us that he may not stand up there, that he may not sing. She warned me that most of the kids his age will probably just walk around the sanctuary aimlessly and may not even stay on the stage for both songs. I was totally prepared for that. She even warned me that there was no reason to be embarrassed because everyone would think that these kids were cute no matter what they did.
I was totally prepared for anything that could be thrown my way as a respectable church-goer and new mother-of-a-performing artist.
How did I handle it?
We'll never know. There was a huge snowstorm here between the times of 8 and 10:30 and since we are the only people that live out of town and don't drive a now-coveted 4-wheel drive vehicle church went on as scheduled. Just without us. OH WE TRIED. I made Dustin pack everyone up into our tiny little snow-hating car and battle it out. We got onto the interstate and after about 3 miles of driving 30 mph on the interstate Dustin finally asked me if it was worth it and I had to come to my senses. I was heartbroken. My little future Christmas Program Star couldn't have cared less. We pulled off and drove VERY slowly back home. sigh. Maybe next year.

I would have been totally bummed to!!!
Sorry about the snowstorm. Our program was friday night and I was sad because the song Doyle sang was not on the original song list but he was able to sing Jingle Bells this year with the entire preschool. Better luck next year!
