Christmas is Coming

I have just today gotten into my Christmas boxes and must share this with you - a nativity scene  created by Mother in her ceramic shop.  I think she borrowed the molds but then created her own sets in her kilns.  Anyway, they have been with me for many years and always bring to me the beauty of this story.  She provided her church, Immanuel Lutheran, with a much larger set which they display each Christmas season.  A lovely ceramic tree is also in my collection of her work, but didn't yet get to that box.  What a joy it is to have such beautiful memories.
