The Nativity


So what is required in a nativity? Baby Jesus, of course. Second most important is probably Mary, followed by Joseph, the Wise Men, shepherds, animals and an angel. Well, bless her little heart (all of you from the south know what's coming next), one of my poor friends is not quite up on her nativity lore. She asked her man how to set it up and he said it didn't matter as long as Jesus was in the middle. So as we were shopping for scrapbooking stuff, I told her I would help her get it right when we go to her house. Notice from the gap in the picture that there is one vital, female item missing. Oh, well, at least she has baby Jesus!

And what about collecting nativities? I have a small collection of nativities that I love. One of my favorites is my snowman nativity. So what do I see on facebook today? A blog listing the worse nativities. (Can we say zombies and bacon/sausages on saurkraut, please?) Ok, it's all fun and laughter until I see MY snowman nativity on the list. HEY NOW!!!! http://whyismarko.com/2011/27-worst-nativity-sets-the-annual-growing-list/
