Opening the Gift

Book Read Today:  Baby Jesus by McGraw Hill
Songs we learned:  Away in the Manger and Luke 2:11 from Songs for Saplings

I told the girls that they could open a gift today. Inside the green gift-box were mini nativity figurines (See myCHRISTmas Toddler Nativity Box for more details.)

I ended up putting two mini-nativity sets in the box.  The girls had fun rummaging around in the straw, finding the figures.  I read them the Christmas story board book and they held up the figurine we were reading about.

My 2yr. old was excited to find baby Jesus. We talked about how Jesus is God’s gift to us.

And we are the gift God wants.
