Waiting for Jesus...

We went to daily mass at St. Mary's last night. We usually arrive just as mass is starting at 5:30. So as usual, we scurried into our pew, right past the nativity scene. But that did not keep Anastasia from noticing it. As soon as we settled in our seats, she started pointing back to the foyer of the church and saying, "It's waiting for Jesus" over and over. I was so impressed that she realized the nativity was for Jesus but that he wasn't there yet; And she was able to verbalize that on her own, I couldn't even bring myself to shush her. It was so sweet throughout the mass to watch her point and remind us all that "It's waiting for Jesus."
