Spoiled...Who Me?

Back in 2001, Chad and I, along with my mom and dad, went back east to see church history sites and visit Jaime and her new baby Nathan. We spent a few days in Washington D.C. and one of the highlights of our time there was attending the D.C. Temple. The grounds are beautiful and we enjoyed the visitor's center tour presented by friendly sister missionaries. My favorite part of the visitor's center, though, was the collection of nativities on display from around the world. I thought they were all so unique and beautiful and I told Chad that I would love to have a nativity collection one day. Chad, who is wonderful in all ways (except that he doesn't like berries), took me at my word and has been presenting me with nativities ever since. They are so beautiful and it gives me great pleasure to take them from their boxes at the beginning of the Christmas season and put them out for display. Seeing all the different representations of Christ's miraculous birth helps me to focus on who Christmas is really about.
