WOW, the belén (nativity scene) is to the Spanish like lights are to some Americans

I just came back from my friend Teri's house. She showed us her "nativity". Like I said before WOW!!! I told José he is in trouble now. She wanted me to know it told the story of Jesus as you follow it along starting at the door.First we see the three kings on their journey on the upper level and daily life back in the day.Then we come to Harod and the Romans on the upper level and the market on the lower level. Just to the left of Harod are the shepherds around the tree which has an angel in it.More of the life of the people back in the day on the upper level and in the lower level you can see a pregnant Mary on the donkey with Joseph at her side.and on the upper level more of the life and times and the lower level shows Mary and Joseph with the baby Jesus out in front. If you look closely in the background of the lower level is a scene of Mary again on the donkey with the baby Jesus in their escape away from Harod.On the end of this scene, you can't see it too well since it is sideways, is of Jesus as a boy working with Joseph as a carpenter. Comments are welcome so I can tell Teri what a fantastic job she did.

Favorite Quote

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles;
find what interests you and that you can do well,
and put your whole soul into it - every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.
