Christmas Program

There's always one. You know, the sheep that kind of stands out. The one who draws everyone attention. The one who...has to be heard (excuse the pun). I am thinking she did not have a chance from the start to even blend in with the rest of the flock. Her class were all sheep, easy enough. They had cute little fuzzy ears that were supposed to hang down, but Millie's must have been on upside down because hers pointed up and out. She was the one in the flock that just had to be noticed. And she was noticed. She may not have known all the words but boy...the ones she did know she made sure were loud and proud.

Even before the singing started, the pastor was reading the Christmas story and as she mentioned a person or animal, they came up front and stood...quietly. When the sheep were walking up the aisle, you could hear one little sheep (with upright ears) going bah, bah, bah. Not real loud, just kind of quiet and a little spooky. I am not sure if they were all supposed to be doing it or not, but Millie made sure she performed her role to the best of her ability and if she was going to be a sheep, she was going to make sounds!
