Nativity Time

On Saturday Antonia is going to be an Angel in her school Nativity Play. The school provided the costume and I provided the dance shoes ( a specific type and colour!), white tights and a bit of tinsel for her halo.

I haven't taken any photos yet but when I have I will post them on here.

It is going to be quite a production. The school hires a theatre some distance from the school to put the Nativity on. It means a trip in a taxi for us or 2 buses!! I think the school are also laying on a bus though so we may take that yet, but if we still have to get to school first a taxi will be easier.

With a start of 10 a.m. the other challenge we have is getting Alexander out of bed in time! He will have arrived home with his Dad the previous night on the last flight into Florence, which arrives around 11.30 p.m. if we are lucky. Ah, well, we all have to make sacrifices! I have promised him a lie-in on the Monday. His Dad is only here until Sunday morning so he has to get up to see his Dad!

Antonia finally managed a full week in school last week! Unfortunately we couldn't keep it up this week and she had a stomache upset Monday and Tuesday so I couldn't send her in. She has to go in the rest of the week though if she still wants to be an Angel!!
