The first Christmas after we started going to church as a family, I decided to take a picture for our family Christmas card. Call it divine inspiration, or whatever you want, but I slapped some head scarves on my accommodating children (then 5 and 2) and sent them out to the back yard. I had 1 picture left in my non-digital camera (remember those days?). One shot was all I had. We talked about the story of the night Jesus was born, and about Joseph and Mary, I told them to pretend….and snap! this was the shot I took. Beautiful! Since I am not a gifted photographer, like my friend, Misty, I totally give God ALL the credit for this picture.
Merry Christmas!
