Alteration to the Nativity Story


On Christmas Eve I told Eddie the story of Christ's birth using our nativity set as a prop. He was an intent listener. When I told him that the wise men wanted to find the baby Jesus and give him presents, he quickly took Jesus from the stable and put him by the wise men. He was being helpful, not realizing that the wise men had to follow the star to find the Savior. Very sweet.

That is so sweet. How very thoughtful. Maybe we should all be so willing to show people where Jesus is.

I love letting my kids play with the nativity set. Baby Jesus was missing most of this Christmas season (Jack kept stealing him) and when he was with all the other pieces he was in the center of a circle (Ben arranged them that way.)

There is so much we can learn from our little ones, huh?

What a darling little boy!
