i was in a good mood and feeling festive,
so the "good mom" in me came out.
it was great!
i was going to teach bieber fever to lovingly play with the mangers this year.
last year's "away WENT the manger" was in the past.
this is what i was saying to myself.
i walked around my house feeling so merry and jolly.
what a great mom i was.
then a crash.
i
there went jospeh's staff.
slipped it back in.
fixed.
calm, nice mommy back in place.
so i patiently told brennan to be soft with the manger.
it was wooden,
how much damage could he do???
after the sheep went through the basketball hoop,
i decided to cut my losses while we were ahead.
i pray for the safety of all mangers this christmas season.
have mercy.

Maybe he mistook the word "creche" for "crush."
:)
Yes, some day we can have cute decorations and nice things out... but yeah, it will be a while :)
Amen!
My manger has steadily grown smaller over the past five years. It is sad, really. But the most important pieces are there. Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus, and a smattering of animals. Who needs wise men and shepherds anyway?
I have also learned that high up where it can be seen only is the best place for the nativity.
buy a fisher price nativity & leave it out & don't worry about what happens to it for one second...then put all the rest of the nativity up high & never allow him to touch them until he's at least 6 (peyton is still not allowed to touch a couple! LOL)
