Henry was completely and absolutely cute as Joseph in the school Christmas pageant. He took his role very seriously and afterward I heard him discussing his part with big sis Mary, our other resident actor. He said that he liked being Joseph so much that he actually felt like he ACTUALLY TURNED INTO Joseph for a little while when he was on stage in his costume.
Mary told him that this was called method acting and warned him of the possible downside of believing that you are earthly father of Jesus.
Henry said "oh, ok."
In this version of the Nativity, Joseph recites a poem Why the Bells of Christmas Ring, by Eugene Fields.
Here is Henry's delivery... he was able to remember every line.
