This morning Raegan was "reading" the story of Jesus birth for a little pop-up book to Drew and I just had to share it. Her version is hilarious. I will be sure to provide interpretations, but I'm pretty sure if you know the story you can figure it out.
"A boy and his Grandma (that would be Joseph and Mary) were riding a horse to a new hill. (Bethlehem is on a hill in the book) All the people said, you can only sleep with the cows over there. (there was no room for them in the inn) Then a fairy came and said hi to the sheeps. (the angel appeared to the shepherds and their sheep) Then the boys (wise men) rode camels and looked at a pretty star in the sky. All the boys and girls and animals were happy and kept looking in the box (mary and joseph and all the animals are smiling at baby Jesus in the manger). The fairies (angels) came back and brought a star and the grandma (Mary) was holding Jesus and the cows and the boys (wise men) were all happy. The end!"
She got the point of the story, but I could hardly contain my laughter at her interpretation. I'm not sure why poor Mary had to be a Grandma and Joseph got to be a boy. We've got a little work to do on working out the details, like Angels are NOT fairies. But for now, I'm gonna enjoy her 3 year old version.
