Lily was quite enamored with the two nativity sets we put out this year, and loved to hold baby Jesus (with supervision, as our sets are fragile). She quickly picked up on the major players, often spotting “Jesus, Mary, and Joesus” (close enough!) in stores and books this holiday season.
But, when you see my toddler sprawled on the floor of my den screaming for “Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!,” please don’t assume she’s having a religious epiphany.
She’s just having a tantrum because she’s not allowed to let baby Jesus drive a school bus.
Impromptu House Rule #457:
Baby Jesus may not operate heavy machinery.
