....The man who kills Jesus

No amount of cajoling/convincing seems to be working.

I will die if he announces this on Sunday.

my 3 yr old thomas-obsessed ds is most put out at his teacher's insistence that there will most def not be anny call for a train driver in the nativity play and that he must instaed be a shepherd. would have been a quicker way to get mary to bethlemhem tho wouldnt it? i might suggest they rework the whole xmas story..

my friends ds1 is the donkey in teh preschool one but wants to be a cow....???

SnowMuchToBits · 07/12/2006 22:24

Mine's an angel this year, as are all his class, but he would far rather be a train driver, builder or fireman!

One of our little shepherds once tried to roast his lamb over the candles on the Advent crown ...

And last year, my angelic daughter offered Joseph a cup of tea in the middle of the dress rehearsal.

Thankfully, she is in the choir this year.

Boys eh? Very funny.

LOL children are so funny. dd came home crying bacause she wanted to be an angel and not a letterbox what a letterbox has to do with a christmas play i dont know. When i asked why she wanted to be an angel she replied because they are beautiful.

I dont think there is much you can do about this one.

I know what you mean. DS (4) is a soldier but if he can't go as Spiderman he wants to be the 'evil king'! Great.

aliceband · 07/12/2006 22:37

LOL f

A letterbox?!

Mind you, I was an elf in my first nativity... Baby boom year and there were only so many teatowels, I think.
