Monday night was Josie's first Christmas play. It was put on by the Mother's Day Out program she goes to on Mondays. For some reason the teachers decided to give her the role of "Mary". At first we were very nervous that she would cry and refuse to go on, but as you will see she did very well. She knew all the songs (thankfully she didn't have to speak), and we only had one scary moment. In one song the kids are supposed to march in place, but she started to trip over her dress. She started tugging on it and she got so mad that she fell backwards! The look on her face was priceless and Wesley and I held our breath, but she popped right back up and started singing again. Isn't she adorable?
On her way to the "stage".

We have no idea what was up with her hair.
I'd like to boast that she is singing, but she's actually yawning. (She was great at the hand motions!)
Joseph was not very happy. (The little star is one of Josie's best friends, Addy).
I got a picture with "Mary-Jo" after the show.
Sadly, I misread the letter they sent out and didn't realize Caleb was actually in the program as well. He and the other babies were supposed to be sheep. After we saw his name on the program and saw the babies doing the hand motions, we realized he had been doing them at home the last few days whenever he heard music. We even got pictures a couple of days before because we thought he was so funny.
