We had the opportunity to take part in our ward's live nativity about a week ago. It was a really great experience to reflect on our Savior. The kids all got in on it too. Emily wanted to try her hand at each part. She was, an angel, a lamb, a shepherd, and finally she came out dressed and ready to be Mary. I was a bit concerned with her being Mary because she was having a very difficult time sitting still and being reverent. I said, "Now Emily, if you are going to be Mary you have to sit still. Because Mary is Jesus' mother and she just had a baby." Then Emily said, "Ya, and when I had the baby it hurt really bad!" She went to her spot and for 5 minutes was the most reverent and sweet that I have seen her. I am so thankful for my Savior, for his example, life and love for me. And the greatest gift that he has given to the whole world!
