Real Life or Art?

Some of you will appreciate this more than others but I have to share it with you, it's just too funny. Today started our Drama/Music camp at Granite Springs. I am a coach for the 3rd graders (yup...some of you know how much I love to teach other kids). The musical that we are doing is based on Mark 5 with 3 stories-the demon possessed man, the bleeding woman and the dead girl, all of whom Jesus heals.

During our small group time, Arianna (the other coach) was reading part of the bleeding woman story, in our scene her problem isn't bleeding but farting. Arianna gets to the part where no one wants to be by this woman because of her smells and noise, when one of our students lets out a very loud fart. The kids all burst out laughing and started to move away from this poor girl. It's just like the skit unfolding in front of us. We could not have planned it better. It was all I could do to not laugh too. We just moved along to the song about how she makes us sick with her smells. Don't worry it all works out in the end. Hopefully Sunday's performance will go as well as this one:)
