This manger is beat up. Its old. The paint is fading. The figures are chipped.
The stable/roof was made by my dad years ago.
I think my grandfather owned this many years ago. My mom will
have to confirm it.
When I was younger, my parents always put a manger scene
below the Christmas tree.
My mom would cover baby Jesus with a cloth until
Christmas Eve.
As a family we would attend Midnight Mass and one
of my favorite things to do was uncover baby Jesus when we
got home from church.
This year, I put out the manger scene and forgot to cover baby Jesus.
Ryan noticed it and quickly covered him up. He remembered
the tradition. On Christmas morning, Ryan had the honor
of uncovering Baby Jesus.
Happy Birthday, Lord Jesus!
God, Thank you for sending your son to earth to live as
a human and to die for our sins.
