Away in the Manger

We recently got out the Little People nativity playset for Luke to play with during this holiday season.  We feel like this is a good way to teach Luke about Jesus and why we celebrate Christmas.  Andy read to him the story about baby Jesus from the bible and then read him a children's book about the birth of Christ. We have left the nativity set out on the table in the living room and Luke has been playing with it daily.  In fact, before he left for Grandma's house this morning he asked "baby Jesus Grandma's house?"  I love to watch him play and look forward to each Christmas that we can get the playset down and continue to teach him about Jesus and the true reason for the holiday season.

Luke loves to press the button on the top and listen to Away in the Manger.
This is Luke showing me baby Jesus.
 I love this picture because Luke is putting the baby Jesus figure over the baby Jesus picture in the book.
 Luke brough all of his other animals over to the manger to see baby Jesus!

Here is a picture of Luke playing with the nativity set last Christmas.  Look how much he has grown over the last year!!
