We have been enjoying going through our Advent Calender as a family as we prepare for Christmas. On the day we read about the Shepherds, Little Man got to dress up as a Shepherd and Little Miss dressed up as Mary. Daddy even got involved and was a shepherd too.
The children loved dressing up and we even made a decent attempt to act out the nativity story - it lasted only minutes, but mom thought it went well for a four and very busy two year old.
Of course, someone had to play baby Jesus, and since Little Man said our Littlest was disqualified since she is a girl, one of Little Miss's dolls won the roll. Little Man helped mom build a manager to place "baby Jesus" in.
Finally Dad and Little Man painted a star to place on the tree to remind us of the Bright Star God placed in the sky and also that Jesus is our Bright Morning Star!
"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches.
I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star." Revelation 22:16
