My mom takes care of Katrina on a daily basis while Paul and I work. All during the Christmas season, she was taking special time to stop at the manger and tell Katrina about the characters. She would push the star on the top and sing 'Away in a Manger' to her. My mom would keep telling me that the only disturbing part of the daily ritual was that Katrina seemed only interested in the black sheep piece! Well, this is a picture from Christmas morning, and with all the other toys in the room at that point, Katrina still went right to the manger and started playing with
all the pieces! So at 9 months, the story of baby Jesus in the manger is already important to her--thank you Mom (Grammy!) :)
