Away in a Manger

As Christmas draws near, I manage to keep Tommy busy by doing what every pastor's kid does. No, not sneaking out and getting someone to buy him alcohol! He plays with our various Nativity sets. His favorite is by Little People, and it really is adorable. He sits at the dining room table with it all throughout the day and just plays with the different characters. He's really amused that although the angel is supposed to go on top of the stable, any of the characters can fit on the post, so he'll put a sheep or a camel up there.

In the last few days he decided to add some more of his Little People to it, especially the characters from his zoo (he has a ton of Little People!). So lately as he describes the Nativity scene, he talks about Mary, Joseph, the wise men, the donkeys, the polar bear, the seal, and the monkey in the tree!
