Breaking News!

Whew! Baby Jesus has been found!
I have all the Nativity scenes that the kids can play with on shelves they can reach. ("Fancy" Nativities are out of reach.) Baby Jesus, a camel, and a sheep were missing this morning. We found the animals, but Reed and I just couldn't find Baby Jesus. Reed was very upset about missing Baby Jesus and even took the empty manger to show Jason. But not to worry, just a minute a ago I found Baby Jesus hiding on the island in our kitchen. I quickly went and laid him in His manger, but then noticed something was amiss. It seems that according to the Ingersoll version of that night in Bethlehem, a dangerous African animal was also present. And is it just me, or does it look like a Wise Man may need to step in before things take a turn for the worse?

There's nothing better than children's decorating or children's art. Hip Hip Hooray for keeping all those pieces together with busy baby fingers. Maw Maw

Yep, I think you are right - wise man better act pretty quickly now that baby Jesus is back in the manger. What fun as they learning the real 'reason for the season'.
