The Baby lying in the Manger/ Princess Teepee

I was trying to find some advent activities for us to do on this freezing cold day so I searched the web and found a cute way to make a mini manger out of sticks and hay and other stuff using a glue gun. I showed it to Kellyn and at first she said she wanted to make it, but she quickly changed her mind because she wanted a manger bed big enough for her baby doll to sleep in. So she had me go outside in the freezing cold weather (while they watched me through the window laughing) to pull dried grass for our manger bed. We put it in a shoebox then she put doll blankets over it to keep her baby Jesus warm which, by the way, is a girl not a boy. She has been very adament all day about making sure we knew this was a girl baby Jesus.  


She got the Littel People Angel and a gold ornament for the Star



To me this just looks like the true meaning of Christmas. Oh to be a sweet and innocent 4 year old girl again.
