The other day, Jed was playing with the little people Nativity set (yes, it's still out--he loves it so much) and he said "mommy, look at Mary and Jesus!" I came over to get a closer look and this is what I saw:

I am sure Mary would have been so grateful for a cart to hold baby Jesus while she and Joseph went on their long journey home! And since they definitely would have taken the manger with them, he wouldn't have been jostled a bit.
