Christmas!

Uh...... excuse me, Libraries IV is under this post.

Christmas was great! Sophie got a sock monkey,

and I got a new Webkinz!

it had been Jesus' 2009, birthday! I'll tell you the Christmas story: a long long long long long long long time ago, there was a women named Mary. When she saw the angel Gabriel, it frightened her. "Do not be afraid," said Gabriel. "A new child will be born, name him Jesus. He is the son of God." But Joseph, who was willing to marry her, was shocked by Mary's pregnancy. "I should not marry her, she's going to have a child," Thought Joseph. That night, Joseph had an amazing dream! He dreamed that Gabriel came to Joseph, too. And he said, "Do not be afraid to marry Mary, Joseph, her baby will be the Son of God, Christ. "

On the night when Jesus was going to be born, Mary and Joseph were married, so they came to the city called Bethlehem the City of David. There was an inn and they came to it. The owner said, "Sorry, guys, but the whole inn is full. All I can find is this stable. Your baby can be born with the animals." When Jesus was born, a giant star exploded to life! some wise men saw that. "we studied the stars for years, and we've never seen one like this!" they came to king Herod (hair-id). The star was a sign of a new child king to be born.

"Go to Bethlehem, there is an inn with a stable of animals. Bring the new child king to me so I can praise him," said King Herod. He had lied because what he really wanted was to bring back the new child king and kill him. He wanted to be the only king in the world. The wise men came to the stable and they saw Mary and Joseph and Jesus. Some other people came, too. "We plan to worship the new child king and bring him gifts," said one wise men. And Mary, Joseph and Jesus lived happily ever after!
