On the Twelfth Day.... A Manger for His Bed

December 12, 2011

We put a cradle, which represents the manger that Jesus was laid in, underneath our Christmas tree.  It is empty now, but on Christmas Eve, when we read the story of the Savior's birth, we will put the baby in His rightful place.  We have the kids up for Christmas Eve every year.

I love this tradition that you have. I read a good post the other day about "searching for the baby Jesus" that you might enjoy. I made a post about nativites that includes a link to it.
