Christmas still?

Last night was Simon's rescheduled Christmas program. Seems the ice storm that kept us from leaving on our Christmas trip also hampered locals. His part was over very soon, and since we are such nice people, we stayed for the entire program to watch other kids whom we've never met. The choir director, who is also Simon's teacher obviously put a lot of time and effort into this program, but there was something very obvious to us. We were careful not to say anything or even look at each other during the program, which had about 20 solo parts (short bits including "Mary Did You Know", "Born in Bethlehem" and the like), but once we were outside I couldn't help myself. Making sure no one was around me I told Kevin, "We should've brought a bucket so they could carry a tune." Then we could make our comments in our car on the way home, but in careful "code" so as not to let Simon know what we were saying. The stage was still very nicely set, as the Christmas trees were still miraculously up and decorated. I have a feeling that if someone would have sneezed they would have dropped all of their needles!
