In an earlier post I talked about what we were doing as a family for Advent, one of the activities did not go exactly as planned. Mary and Joseph were on a journey to Bethlehem, when Mary came up missing. We searched and searched for her, but were unable to find her. Meanwhile, Will had an awesome idea, why not substitute Mary for another figure. His idea was interesting, Anakin Skywalker takes Mary’s place. Why not, Will was so desperate to get to the manger, anything would work. I thought that probably Anakin Skywalker was not the best choice for the Mary part, but he was on to something. Will conceded to the idea of giving up Anakin for another figure. He decided on Sonya Lee (McDonalds Little People, we spend a little too much time and money here). I thought that a little girl holding a shake and fries, was somewhat better than the figure who would become Darth Vader. Maybe Mary will turn up, but for now Mary (Sonya Lee) and Joseph will end up at the manger, hopefully with no other substitutes.
