Today I am showing you my cherished Nativity. It is made by Goebel (the people who up until recently were licensed to make Hummel Figurines). It was given to me as a gift by my mother shortly before the birth of my first child, so I received it on Christmas in 1978, 40 years ago. It was always displayed under our tree until the grandchildren started coming along, and was carefully packed away until now. It is in perfect shape, no cracks or crazing, no chips, just like new. It is probably worth much more than it's original price, but that really isn't important.
This is the first year it is set up again. Remembering Mom and missing her this Christmas.
