After church today we had a Christmas lunch and a pageant. The kids got to pick their characters and the church sang Christmas Carols that went along with the the birth of Jesus (which was narrated by another student). It was quite adorable and very well-controlled chaos! Steven Edward went in wanting to be an angel..... until he saw that the shepherds got their very own staff (and all the other boys were shepherds!). So he changed his mind. In the end he was quite an abusive shepherd - hitting other boys with his staff. This evoked laughter from his father, and quiet "Steven Edward..... stop hitting!" from his mother who was watching in the audience. He would then proceed to beat the ground for awhile until the urge was irresistible to start sword fighting with other shepherds or abusing them. All in all there may be therapy needed down the line for some other boys due to our abusive shepard. It was quite enjoyable to watch and our son loved it!
