It's Over!

The Primary Program is over! I can relax! I feel so free!

We fit 146 kids and 20 teachers on the stand and on risers in front of the stand. The kids were reverent--unbelievably reverent! (Okay--except the Sunbeams--but, they're three and four. They did their best!) They went up to the pulpit at the right times to say their parts. Only two kids were gone, and they found subs for their parts. They remembered the words to the songs and actually sang (well, most of them, anyway).  The meeting only went over five minutes--a miracle, since we didn't even get to start the program until 11:40. 

It was awesome.  I have never been involved in a program that went so well. 

We did have one mishap that was a first for me . . . A little boy sitting right at the front got too excited and bumped his chin on the edge of the wall that goes around the stand.  He bit his lip, and it started to bleed.  Poor kid.  He was in tears, but our good Bishop pulled him onto his lap, got him a kleenex, and comforted him until he felt better.  It was really sweet.

It's over!!!  Hooray!!!

YES!!!! Too bad you can't video tape it. It sounds like it was such a good program. Now what are you going to do?

I got to sit in with the congregation and just watch my kids for the first time in 5 years. It was pretty nice!
