So... you know those mischievous elves on the shelves?
Well... I thought that was a cute idea, but wanted to "Catholicize" it for our family this year.
I purchased the "Journey to Bethlehem" Mary and Joseph.
Every morning the kiddos find where Mary and Joseph were waylaid the night before on their way to the stable.
Whoever finds them starts singing "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel",
and then they all join in as they bring them to the crèche.
and then they all join in as they bring them to the crèche.
It is a fun new tradition, and we are really enjoying it!
Oh... in case you were confused, the reason why we have started this already is
due to the fact that we are now going to a Maronite Catholic parish.
Their "Glorious Season of the Birth of Our Lord" started two weeks ago!
Love, Us.
