Macho's Christmas Program

Earlier this week, Mom made an executive decision to withdraw Macho from his Christmas pageant at church.  It was a tough call because he looked SO cute in his sheep costume, but during the dress rehearsal, he wouldn't sing the songs, wouldn't stand on the risers, jumped up and down from one riser to another, pushed other 3 year olds, and was a general nuisance. 

pApa lamented, "Are you sure you want to take him out of the show? You spent so much time on his costume." To which Mom replied, "It's not going to make me feel better about the costume if he wears it in the play and is a complete disaster." Instead, on Wednesday night, Macho sat with Mom and watched Jammy perform in the play, and Mom had no regrets about her decision.

Today was the day of Macho's Christmas program at preschool.  Mom had a sense of what was to come. On the days that the class had rehearsed their program, Macho had come home without a sticker (because he got in trouble too many times). Mom had no indication that Macho knew any of the songs on the practice sheet, and the dress rehearsal from the church program was fresh in her mind.  Mom told Mrs. C that it would be perfectly okay if Macho didn't participate.  Mrs. C said that she thought it would be okay.  Yes, Macho had been crazy at rehearsals, but usually on show days kids do alright.  

So, Macho was in the preschool Christmas program, and here is the video of the first song.  

When all of the other kids would sing "Good News!" Macho thought they were saying "Scooby-Doo!" It was an honest mistake.
