Our Crib Service today was a heartwarming occasion with little shepherds, angels and kings taking part in a tableau to celebrate the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Some of the older ones read passages from the Holy Scriptures:
and some of the younger ones just took part in their own way:
One young shepherd was particularly enthused by some of the carols:
The Kings made their procession with gifts as described in Holy Writ. It was great that so many dads came along like St Joseph, the "upright and just man", supporting the family occasion:
And finally, all the children gathered to sing, to receive a blessing, to be photographed by loving parents and to help us all to enter into the spirit of the feast day:

What a beautiful Nativity Scene.
Now why is baby Jesus wearing pink?. Having said that, my eldest son sometimes wore pink baby grows as my sister had had two daughters before me and I inherited all the baby clothes. Waste not want not.
Soo sweet! Our Bee also had a Nativity Play at school (!) -she was chosen to be Mary but refused -she wanted to be an angel...
Pink baby clothes for baby boy should be fine -in the middle age light blue was considered proper color for women and pink for men -because Our Lady has blue clothes and Our Savior more red....
Don't know, if this is true or not but it's a nice story!
Happy Christmas to all!
