As many of you already know, I was recently called to be the ward nursery leader. It has been a very fun calling for me and I am enjoying myself and I already love those little children (two of which are my own). Church goes so fast! Anyway, for the past month we have been talking about Jesus Christ being the Son of God. I wanted each child to have a baby Jesus to take home with them for Christmas. After a few searches, I didn't find anything I really liked, so I decided to make some of my own. Those of you who know me know that I don't sew or really do many crafts in general. However, these babies went together so easy and I enjoyed making them. I made a little "manger" box to put them in. It really made me feel the spirit of Christmas as I sewed each one and thought of the children taking them home to share with their families (even if half of the eyes I did upside down). I know that Christmas really is about Christ and giving him was the best thing that I could do for myself.

Holly these were the best ever. Jacob was crying on the way home because he couldn't find his and it turns out I was sitting on it in the van. (I felt bad to sit on Jesus). Anyway, he kept it with him all evening and made sure he knew where his Jesus was. Thank you so much for going above and beyond. He loves it!
Hey I am impressed.

I love you
