Lia and Sophie were in the live Creche during the Creche Festival last week. Sophie was the Baby Jesus and Lia was an angel. While they were on stage the Bing Crosby song "Littlest Angel of All" played through my head.
The chorus goes like this:
His gifts were so meager and bare,
just a butterfly with golden wings,
a little piece of a hollow log
two shiny stones from the river bed
and a worn out scrap of his faithful doll.....
And this was the present that the angel gave the Christ Child, and it was the gift that was chosen to be the "Heavenly star up above"
To see both of my babies up there was the greatest gift I could ever receive. Lia waved at me the whole time and was trying to talk to everyone, so we gave her a binki.
(the group that followed us on stage was looking on from the side of the stage and commented on how cute our baby Jesus was, then we heard a little shriek and a girl said "Oh my gosh! it blinked, its a real baby!"... classic)
