Nativity play
As a nice Sunday activity we decided to decorate the Christmas tree with ornaments. All went fairly well until the kids discovered the stuffed nativity set in the same box as some of the ornaments. My mom made this wonderful “huggable nativity” so that the kids would have something christmasy to play with and carry around. In theory this helps them leave the porcelain nativity set alone. The kids love the huggable nativity. They love it so much that they abandoned the tree decorating project in favor of playing with it. As I put the last few ornaments on the tree it was really hard not to laugh out loud while listening to their game. There is something so wrong about the wise men and the angel getting into a fist fight because the wise men have decided to turn to the dark side.
