School Program

Caleb recently performed in his second little school program, and it went much better than the Christmas program a few months ago. During the Christmas program, he just stood there looking stage struck while everyone else sang. This time, he was very into the songs and enthusiastic with his hand motions. The whole thing would have gone off without a hitch (and how boring would that be), except that, about ten minutes into the fifteen-minute performance, Caleb noticed that a live video of the group was being projected onto a screen behind them. He craned his neck around to watch the video for a minute, and then prodded the girl next to him to look at it, too. Soon, the whole group was turning around to watch themselves on the video. The audience was cracking up as kids abandoned their exuberant singing to turn and wave at themselves on screen. The music teacher was able to recover most of the group for the final song, but Caleb and a few others just couldn't tear their eyes off that screen.
