LIke Magic!

I've spent the last few days behind the scenes at Bow the Knee. This is a big production our church (and 24 other church partners) put on every year to tell the story of Jesus. There are 300 cast and crew, five shows, 2500 tickets, several sheep, a few tears and a mountain of good stories.  I'm on Kid Crew which means I hang out with four adult friends and 34 fantastic children.  These kids pour out energy on stage and off. 

We had two shows yesterday which translated into twelve hours of time with makeup, costumes, singing and prep.  At one point the noise in our back stage room reached an epic level and we resorted to the secret all teachers pull out when they are all done.   Heads up seven up.   

Magic!!I think if we'd left them there very long all 34 of them would have been fast asleep.  Little message to all the parents of the Bow the Knee kids. Well done. Your kids are amazing. Kind and hard working. Committed.  Sweet.  Lively and Fun.  Thank you for sharing them with us.
