So the main present we gave Sophie & Chase for Christmas was a Little People Nativity. I thought that it would be a good, tangible way to help them grasp the Incarnation. I mean, it's hard to grasp as adults, so if little brightly-painted figurines that make good teethers for infants and invitations for toddlers to use their imaginations and humor their parents, then so be it! In Chase's mind, it made sense for Mary and Joseph to take turns on the roof (rather than the angel Gabriel who normally sits on a button that triggers "Away in a Manger"). And notice that Chase calls Mary "Murray". Not to be confused with the monster "Murray" on Sesame Street. Of course not.
Not pictured: the sheep and donkey who are in same proportion to the camel, & the very "pc" 3 kings (one black, one white, and one Asian)
