You can imagine how proud were mom, dad, grandma and grandpa were when it was announced our three year old, Paige, had a starring role in the pre-school Easter pageant. Practice, practice, practice is what she did for two whole weeks. There was great consternation on the part of mom and dad when the final line demand that she sing, "Hail, King of the geese". But, if that's what was to be sung that's the way it was supposed to be.
Lucky for mom she called the teacher and had time to get the real scoop. Kids are funny and hear what they want. My then 14 year old son, upon entering high school, was convinced St. Charles Borromeo was Charles 'born a man'. Anyway, the play with Paige came off and the refrain of, "Hail, King of Kings" was sung perfectly. Too bad. It would have been more fun sung in it's original form.
