Christmas Concert at Nursery School or the Unhappy Reindeer Tale

Okay, I admit it. It wasn't my finest hour (or more accurately, 30 minutes). While I have been diligently rehearsing for weeks and fully expected a flawless performance, the appearance of 40 parents in the audience gave me quite a case of stage fright!

My teacher, Angela, held me on her lap as I tried to explain my performance anxieties.
Later, however, I did manage to pull myself together and perform as the "sixth" cracker in the song "Five Little Crackers." During rehearsals, I had practiced the song as the understudy for one of the five lead performers who had been ill. I wasn't going to let all that hard work rehearsing go to waste now, was I?

Hilarious! Poor unhappy reindeer. I guess Saxon does not have a Broadway career ahead of him, huh?
