Christmas Concerts AND Kindergarten days are over!!!!

Well, my kindy days are behind me as I had my last day today. I was a little bit sad because I will miss my teachers so much, especially Mrs Huggins, my main teacher. I won't even see her next year as she is teaching at another school but lucky for me she is going to my friend Ella's school so I will still hear about her from Ella!!! Yippee. Today we put on a little concert for the parents and grandparents. It was all 'top secret', we weren't allowed to tell our Mummies and Daddies what is was about. Last week I little bit slip though.......I told Mummy we were doing a 'Nativity play' and that I was the CHEF!!!!! Mummy seemed surprised by this because she did nativity plays when she was a little girl at school and she said there was definately no chef in the play!!!!!! I assured her, Yes, I am definately the chef!!! Mummy thought maybe it was a VERY modern nativity play and that maybe the Virgin Mary and Joseph 'travelled' with a chef!!!! Yes, by donkey as well!! OR maybe when they knocked on the door of the overcrowded Inns to find a place for Mary to give birth, just maybe, a chef answered the door!!!!! I could tell Mummy was very curious but I couldn't tell her anymore as it was all supposed to be a big secret. Anyway, when I was going to bed that night I remembered that I am actually not the Chef after all, I am actually the CHEFERD!!!!! Then Mummy, (being as clever as she is!!!) realised I was actually meaning to say a SHEPHERD!!!! Sometimes that happens to me, I mix my words all up, must be a 5 year old thing I'd say!
So in the photo above, (click on photos to make them bigger) towards the back, there I am being a shepherd, I have a white robe, hat and red over my shoulders. If you look very carefully you can see Luc in the doorway watching me. Mummy had to leave the room because Luc was being 'difficult' and he kept wanting to come to me, afterwards (picture below) you can see that he is sitting next to me, just trying to be a big kindy kid like me!!!!!!
After the concert Santa came to visit us and he brought a present for us all. I got a book about elephants.

Here I am with Mrs Huggins, she is the best teacher and I will miss her SO much. She wrote nice things about me in my 'portfolio' and she said I am ready for big Pre Primary school every day next year. Yes, next year I will go to school EVERY DAY!!

Last Friday night, the whole school put on a concert and our kindy class also had a special act. We sang a song about Jesus being born and we did some dancing as well. See is you can see me in the photos, (kind of like playing'where's sophie!)I have piggy tails and I am wearing all white and red tights. All the mums and dads came to watch. Mummy said it was hard trying to comtrol Luc. Now that he is walking he is constantly moving and he doesn't like to sit still even for a minute. He was very funny, he kept crawling to the front near the stage and standing up and clapping and doing all the actions the kids on stage were doing........sorry, no photo of this because Mummy was VERY busy trying to stop him from 'stealing' the show, and Daddy was busy filming so that we can send it to "Australias Funniest Home Videos" show to make money...(well, that is what he said!) Looks like he is going to be a real performer.

Here is a picture of Luc trying to escape from Mummy and Daddy again.....

SO now I am on school holidays until February 4 2008!!! That is a long long time away. Woo hoo, can't wait till Christmas now and see what Santa will bring me.

Lots of love
Sophie
