Nathan's School Program

Last week was also Nathan's school program. (Three days, three performances, five people who are glad to have a couple days off.) Again, the pictures and videos are dark, but an improvement from the recital.

The music teacher did an excellent job of putting this program together. I enjoyed the whole program. The little kids (pre-k) doing the ABC song and 5 Little Snowmen (to the tune of 5 Little Ducks went out one day...) stole the show.

In this first video, they are singing, "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus".

Then they sang "Here Comes Santa Claus".

At the end of the program, the grand finale was the entire school singing and signing the song, "Christmas is a Feeling". This mom was pulling out tissues because she was bawling like a baby. We didn't get the whole thing on video, but here's what Sean was able to capture.

Here are the words to the song, "Christmas is a Feeling". Now you know why it makes this mommy cry.

Christmas is a feeling…filling the air,
It’s love and joy and laughter…of people ev’rywhere;
Christmas is a feeling bringing good cheer,
It reaches out to touch you as the holiday draws near.

It’s mistletoe and falling snow and candles burning bright;
It’s a baby in a manger on a cold winter night;
It’s glad noels and chiming bells and presents by the tree;
It’s the spirit of giving in you and in me.

For Christmas is a feeling filling the air,
It’s love and joy and laughter of people ev’rywhere;
But if Christmas is a feeling, bringing such good cheer,
Then why, oh why, don’t you and I…try to make it last all year?

Why can’t it last……….all year?
