traveling Baby Jesus

Last year on the blog, there were many nativity adventures, and it looks like that will be a feature this year as well. We got out the Fisher Price Little People nativity set, and he has been playing with it constantly. When I told him we were going to the lake today, he said "I want to take Baby Jesus to the lake", so I told him to pack up his set and gave him a bag. He tossed in all the characters and props and then very reverently placed Jesus in the bag. David was impressed when he did this again for the trip home, tossing in everything negligently and then carefully placing Jesus in the stable in the bag. He wanted to watch a Baby Jesus movie, so I'm on the lookout for one of those that's geared toward his age level. I'm pleased that he seems to understand the importance of Jesus, insisting we pray with him and pointing out Jesus pictures everywhere we go.
