My Nativity Scene

Joseph got misplaced.  He dipped.  No, really.  I bought a holy family, and, in the sealed box....the unopened box, there was a Mary, a crib, a baby Jesus, and a........beggar.  No Joseph.  No lie.

So, what do I do?  I try and find a new Joseph.  One that matches this family. But, you see, the family is usually sold as a set.  It's not as easy as it sounds.

BUT, my "set" really wasn't a set....it was just like life.  Sometimes the family just doesn't come in the regular set.

I did find a Joseph on E-bay.  Ordered him.....and I believe he's happy he's got a new home-- I can tell.  Mary's happy, too.

What makes a family? Sometimes it's those people who are "blood-related."  Sometimes family is heart- related.  And sometimes our family is life-related.

It's time to celebrate our own family....however it looks.  Why?  Because, we are family!
