dd1 has been chosen by a)our local church and b)her school to be Mary in the Nativity play. That's two Mary gigs in the same week - I would have killed to be in a similar situation! Anyway, dd1 is hysterically upset and crying and saying she doesn't want to do it. Honestly I've never seen her in this much of a state. She seems really petrified. My first instinct was to tell the school that she didn't want to do it, but her teacher says just to leave it and she'll come round. Dh also says I am being over-protective and that it will be good for her! What do you think? She's almost 5 btw.
