Christmas Pageant

Is there anything much cuter than 4 (and 5) year olds in little costumes singing? I thought not. Carrie was the Innkeeper’s Wife in the Christmas pageant this year, and had one of the only spoken lines in the whole play: “No room in the inn!”

Unlike last year, the baby doll didn’t come close to falling on the floor, and all the wise men were willing to give up their gifts. This year the kids signed along with singing one of the songs – I noticed when Carrie would practice it at home that she was signing. It was really, really adorable. I have to admit I’m going to miss this sort of thing when Carrie goes to public school next year, although I imagine there will still be some sort of holiday concerts? And of course Anna will get her turn in a few years.
