Christmas concert

I sat though my son's annual Christmas concert. Last time I went it sounded like a bunch of cats being strangled and that was only two groups. This year they had all four groups- 5th grade band and orchestra and 6th grade band and orchestra. 5th grade is always a little rough. 6th grade sounded good.

Instead of the sound of cats being strangled I had this child that was climbing all over bench seats. up and down, back and forth, stomping up and down the stairs. I knew who he is and I noticed his parents sitting in the front not paying any attention to what their son was doing. But the kid was annoying everyone else. I watched him bump into two people. Squeeze in between people. I couldn't say anything to him. I was sitting to far away. I would have throttled my kids if they had behaved this way. Then he finally disappeared. I am thinking he decided to wonder the hall of the Jr high. The sad part is this child lives behind me too. Their are times I wonder why people have children if they are going to treat them like a novelty. That is another story I will save for later.
Anyways My son plays the drums. He is loving it. I hope he sticks with it. We have gone through drums, clarinet, violin. I am very proud with all my children. Well we will see how the next concert goes.
