MY MARY
My daughter played the part of Mary in a Living Nativity last weekend. We arrived on a beautiful 30-acre farm north in Bahama, NC, (the name derives from the first letters of the names of three local families: Ball, Harris and Mangum) to find out that she was going to hold a "real baby" only seven weeks old and not a doll like we expected.
"But I'm only seven!"
After practicing holding the "real baby" with the mom nearby, MH was ready for her debut as the mother of Jesus. The nativity was indeed "living" (and lively) with sheep and shepherd boys dueling each other with their walking sticks.
Today we found photographs of the Living Nativity in The Durham News with a stunning slide show.
Merry Christmas
