Keeping it real


In a world of photo editing, Pinterest, and selective sharing, I always appreciate a good “real life” share. I came across these photos from Christmas and they made me smile. This is what our nativity reenactment looked like:

Both boys were most excited about being angels. This is a carry over from last year when Scotland dressed up as an angel several times a day. The angel costume was the only one that Anders was willing to don. The sparkly gold-starred halo appealed to him.



Hallelujah jive?!

Two worshipping wisemen. Anders, that looks like total devotion to me.
It’s easy to feel that spiritual things like this aren’t worth doing with kids of this age- because they tend to be more chaotic and crazy then spiritual. But I’m beginning to learn that the spirit is much more nuanced and diverse than I usual think. He is quite capable of touching active little boys hearts.
