Well the 4th birthday celebrations are over & I can start thinking about Christmas. LM's Pirate & Mermaid party (he shared with a girl from pre-school) went well. The entertainer, Elfic the Juggler, went down a storm (unfortunately I can't take the credit for booking him) & was vaguely reminiscent vocally of Mr Maker, which may explain his success with a bunch of 3 & 4 yr olds who I was sure would run riot whilst the poor man tried his best to carry on with the show, but who were instead transfixed & in fits of giggles. If you ask LM what the best bit of the show was, he will tell you it was Elfic dropping things & standing on the horn. Slapstick rules!
And now we are in full preparation mode for the pre-school Nativity where LM has finally accepted that he is not a train (maybe next time the school could do Polar Express?) and has helped choose an outfit & make the crown & gift (cue much glitter everywhere). He seems to think he has no singing to do, or at least refuses to practice, but we shall see next week if he is going to get into the spirit of the thing or repeat Easter's non-performance.
That's if I see any of it through the tears of a proud mum.
