There’s nothing quite like watching your child perform in the school nativity play. The pictures were taken in those all important dress rehearsals when the children brushed up on lines and made sure the costumes fit (although it didn’t matter if not!). No doubt they brought tears to the eyes of parents... and probably a few giggles too.
