let me tell you again, Grace, how important it is to give everyone a chance, Here's what I do. I always start with mary and tell them we must choose our mary carefully because mary was the mother of jesus. Yes and then I tell them about joseph and that he was God's choice to be jesus father. That's how I explained that uh frankly I don't ever spend much time on joseph because it's always Elmer Hopkins and he knows all about mary and joseph but I do explain about the wise men and the shepherds and how important they are and I tell them there are no small parts, only small actors. Now remind the angel choir not to stare at the audience and don't let them wear earrings and things like that and don't let them wear clunky shoes or high heels. I just hope you don't have too many baby angels, Grace because there will be your biggest problem, you'll have to get someone to push the baby angels on, otherwise they get in each other's way and they bend their wings and bob could do that and he could keep an eye on the shepherds too. Oh, another thing about the Angel Choir don't let them wear lipstick, they think because it's a play that they have to wear lipstick and it looks terrible. So tell them and Grace don't use just anybody's baby for jesus. I get a quiet one better yet get to if you can then, if one turns out to be fussy, you can always switch them.
