22nd's Slice of Life Story
|
| Every Christmas morning,
when my kids were little, I read them the nativity story out
of the big family bible.
When my son was old enough to talk, he asked me what a
stable was.
I thought for a moment how to explain it to him in terms
he could understand, then told him, "It's something
like your sister's room, but without a stereo."
