Jacob's First Church "Singing" Experience

Our church had a special revival church service a few Sunday evenings ago. Jacob was asked to sing two songs with the 3-5 year olds. They practice each Sunday morning, although I don't think Jacob participates much. The leader assured me he would be fine, so we let him do it. Ummmm, wow, is all I have to say! Let's just say that he was a high-energy, little monkey on the stage! He ran around, climbed on the stairs, and did everything but participate. We didn't remove him from the situation because, honestly, it would have caused a greater scene because he would not of come down willingly! It was one of the parent moments that I ran back-and-forth in my head for days wondering how we could have handled it differently.

I captured it all in a few pictures and two videos below. I realized after watching the videos later that they didn't fully capture running back and forth. A couple of the pictures illustrate this beautifully, though! I think that until he matures some, we'll keep him sidelined from future church singing!
