Today was Levi's first time to participate in a school concert (the 1st graders sang one song). Here he is, front and center, in the red shirt. He watched me and Rob the whole time, just as proud as could be! His best friend Micah is on the top bleacher, far left, watching the teacher's every move--so cute! They actually sounded pretty great--not afraid to sing out!
After this, all the teachers got up and sang this song.
Christmas in an Elementary School
(sung to “Winter Wonderland”)
Children scream, they’re not listenin’
When they go, we’re not missin’ em’,
In all of this pain, we try to stay sane,
Workin’ in an elementary school.
Christmas comes, they’re excited,
Though our nerves they’ve ignited,
They’re off of the walls, they run in the halls,
Workin’ in an elementary school.
In the lunchroom we can hear them yellin’
And we know that they are really wound.
Someone hits, the other says, “I’m tellin’!”
And that is when our heads begin to pound.
Pretty soon we’ll be restin’
Cause our nerves, they’ve been testin’
We’re happy it’s clear,
It just come once a year
Christmas in an Elementary School!!!
I was slightly worried that Levi's name might come up in the lyrics, but, whew--he was safe this time!
how fun. we just had sophie's moms day out program, and it's pretty entertaining to watch.
