Lets not forget the struggles of mother mary at this festive season . Here is a woman dragged around Israel eight months pregnant on a donkey and and forced to sleep in a stable , cause I guess motel 6 was filled.
She realy needed a silent night when all these animals were making a racket and no midwife present , I am sure joseph tried his best but this man had no experience delivering a baby.
To top it all off, when she needed peace an quiet , 3 wise guys showed up bearing gifts . I am sure she did not asked to be a surrogate mother.
So as we splurge and indulge at this time , lets remember the sacrifice of this woman.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
