    I’m in the process of directing our pageant, so I can relate!

    Modern turkeys fly very poorly these days.

    You’ll never get it off the ground using turkeys instead of magic reindeer.

    I’m sure it’s stuff like this that makes poor Mrs. Hardacre such a hard a$$ in class!

    For several years, I have taken numerous kids to bike races, on outings and on camping trips.

    As a friend says: “It looks like you are herding cats.”

    Any production involving a group of kids is a challenge.

    Thankfully, I have several kids that have been doing it for a few years, they understand and know the ropes.

    as a veteran of many christmas “pageants” from all sides of it, performer, parent, director, etc. all of them are a challenge, but I have never been in one, that in the end, wasn’t a blessing to everyone who took part.
