After Christmas Eve at Patty and Dan's in Jordan, we went to church at St. Joseph's in West Paint Paul for their 10pm (midnight) mass. The boys were very well behaved! It was a beautiful mass.
At one point when John was loosing it a bit, I took him into the small chapel where there was a Manger scene in front of the alter. We walked VERY slowly up to the alter and John laid down on his belly to get a better look at what was happening in the stable. He was awe struck- He just kept saying, "Oooohh" in amazement. At one point, he reached out and held Joseph's hand that was stretched out.
It was just a perfect moment; the smell of pine and poinsettias, white lights twinkling, and John laying respectfully at the feet of the manger scene. This one of my favorite church memories I have- Beautiful!
