Every year the Primary class (1st-3rd grade) at Marvelously Made performs the Nativity Play. In the days leading up to when the roles for the play would be assigned, Hadley announced she wanted to be Mary. We had a long chat about how there are lots of other important roles in the story, this is Hadley's first year in the class, she shouldn't get her hopes up, etc. The very next day after this chat, Hadley came bursting into my classroom after school announcing she would be Mary in the play. ;)
All of the costumes had to be handmade at home with parental help, so Derek & Hadley set to work to make Mary come to life! They made her costume using an old set of white sheets we had in our linen closet, and Hadley finger knitted the belt and an accent to go on her veil/headpiece.
We are so thankful that Hadley got to be a part of this special experience this year! And it was so fun for Brady, Shelby, and me to (literally) get a front-row seat to it all! Hadley's class performed the play a total of four times to allow all of the classes a chance to see it as well as the parents of the Primary students. Brady got to watch three of the four performances, I got to see it twice, and Shelby was able to attend one.
