Every ward has One

(My sister Paula accompanies the fam while I man the visual.)

My dad sent us CDs with thousands of pictures he scanned in from his old slides. Here a little gem that reminds me of our ward's upcoming primary program this Sunday.

Several years ago after the program was over, a new lady in the ward was in the restroom the same time as me. She was still laughing about a certain boy's performance that had everyone's attention. "Did you SEE him," she began. Before she went on too far I had to come clean. "Just so you know, that was my kid."

I don't remember what he did that time, but last Christmas the primary sang "Away in a Manger. " At the end of the song when it says "asleep on the hay" there was an echo, russian style grunt-singing/shouting, "Hey, hey, hey!" I was fuming and mortified at the time, but now it seems comical.

I'll try to remember that this Sunday as there is a high probibility that we may have a repeat performance. I know every ward has one kid that gets the attention of the audience, but does it always have to be mine?
