Hello, Dear Ones! Today I want to bring you into my little entry to see Little Richard is all dressed up for Christmas!
I have this old Nativity sitting here on top.
Lots of to do is going on to honor the birth of Baby Jesus.
My old Nativity comes in two pieces: The Holy family
Then the three Wisemen.
There was not an angel with my Nativity, but this one came to oversee the scene. I put this angel together many years ago. Her head, hands, wings and the plastic cone she stands on came in the kit and then I had to pick my fabric and make the dress and then her cape. I still think she is a pretty angel and she is the correct size to fit with this Nativity.
Among the pines and ribbons, sits my little Bible that I carried to church when I was a little girl. If you will look closely at Jesus' face you'll see I gave him some very luscious eyelashes! It's so old and falling apart but I use it each Christmas season.
I've opened my little Bible to this beautiful painting of the birth of Jesus. Dear Ones, we all get caught up in buying presents, wrapping them, getting together with family and friends and of course decorating! All these things are wonderful but the main reason we celebrate this time of year is because of the birth of our Savior Jesus!
Merry Christmas to you all!
Be a bunch of sweeties, Shelia :)
I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
Away In A Manger
Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing
The Baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes
The Baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes
I love You, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh
Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask You to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
I ask You to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Your tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with You there
In Your tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with You there
~ sung by us all
How Sweet Sheila. Love that you made that sweet angel and you still have your bible from when you were a little girl. The Nativity is so sweet. Have a good week as we wind down to Christmas. xoxo Kris
