Christmas Program

We went to Jack's Christmas program at school (and our church) tonight! He did so well! He was so very excited about it. The problem was, when I went to drop him off at school this morning, I realized he thought it was time for the Christmas program right then. When he found out he had to go to school first and we'd be back later to see it, he broke down in tears. Poor guy. But he pulled through and he took his part in the program very seriously. (Though he had practiced his "Moo's" yesterday in the car, but somehow got switched to a donkey today. Good thing he took it all in stride and was great at saying "hee-ha!" instead.) He ended up front and center for their song, and next to his best buds--William, Blake, and Jack M.

 The video is pretty rough on here but he's in the middle. The best part is when he claps
at the end with the audience, then they all take a bow!

He also requested wearing a tie this morning. We didn't have one but I've wanted to get him one anyway. Mom ran over to Target and found one for him and dropped it off so he could wear it. His teacher said he made sure it went over his donkey costume so everyone could see it. 

We are so proud of him! It's been so wonderful seeing him come out of his shell this year. He's still cautious and shy but when he wants to, he can be more outgoing than we've ever seen before!
