Yankee girl in Arthur's court

You can't appreciate home till you've left it, money till it's spent, your wife till she's joined a woman's club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town. O. Henry Porter 1862-1910, American short-story Writer

Holiday Happenings...

Wednesday was Lexie's nursery school's nativity play entitled: Whoopsy Daisy-Angel. Lexie was Mary, chosen because they knew she wouldn't be getting up and down and wiggling all over the place. She tends to be a little bit of a day dreamer in public settings, so they chose well, as it looked like she was glued to her chair. There were a number of little angels and one little ring leader angel who was supposed to be kind of clumsy etc...(thus the title), and this angel was the one who led everyone to Baby Jesus. Anyway...the children were all positioned behind a curtain before the play began. When it started, and the curtain was pulled back, Lexie caught sight of Charlie in the back with a camera ready to tape the show. I didn't know what she would do if she saw us, but she started laughing and pointing, as if someone had just told her the funniest joke ever.

That sounds like the cutest play! At least she didn't get stage fright and freeze up!
