Nativity Scenes

[ailbhe]

I was struck today by the serene look on Mary's face in all the Nativity Scenes around the place. In my experience, new mothers rarely look serene. Options are: utterly exhausted, guilty and panic-stricken, or hysterically happy with wildly exaggerated facial expressions and high-pitched meaningless chat.

A deliriously happy, gobsmacked Nativity Scene would be a nice change, I feel. We could get Donkey from Shrek in to help.
