Mary Among Us

Kirra dressed up like Mary (the nativity Mary of course) for a day of make believe.


She came up with this all on her own. Sam and Marilyn took the kids, for the second year in a row, to their churches Birthday Party for Jesus. At that party was a very pregnant woman with her husband riding in on a donkey. So that made a big impression on Kirra seeing how she has dressed up like Mary for three days in a row now.


Yesterday she was playing Mary, yet again, and she had her baby doll playing Jesus rocking in her crib that Gpa Kay made her. Later in the day we were cleaning up the toys and sorting, a never ending event, and she found her small Bible. I went into her room after overhearing her wisper to the baby. In this picture she is reading her Bible to the baby Jesus as he lay in his crib. **Pretty sweet.
When she was setting this scene up she said,"Mom, me and you could be Mary. You get one of your dane-kets (blankets). And dad and Cohl will be Joe-seps and we could have our Baby Jesus." As she gazes into the crib. "It will be so fun!"

"Hi Jenna, I'm Mary."

This morning Kirra, once again dressed the part, says to me," Mom you say hi to me...I'm Mary."
