Nativity Cuteness

The girls helped me put up our nativity scene the other night. Their excitement was awesome!

When we were done, Emily was looking at it with a very confused look on her face. She looked at me and said, "But where's Noah?"

I said, "He's in the playroom with his ark.", but then had a good laugh.

Yesterday at church I was teaching about 25 kids under the age of 4 about the Christmas story.

We were talking about the manger. I told them that animals eat food out of a manger. But since Mary and Joseph didn't have a bed for Baby Jesus, they used the manger for his bed.

I had a box and put some hay in it and then gently laid a baby doll into it.

One of the little boys had a really scared look on his face and said, "Oh no, are the animals going to eat Baby Jesus?" I assured him that the animals didn't eat Baby Jesus, but got another good laugh!

A similar scandalous thing happened to me yesterday at Sunday school:

The kindergarteners were playing with playdoh so my co-teacher decided to make a manger and lay baby Jesus is it. When another student walked in the classroom he said, "Ew, is that a bug?"
