Christmas Travels of Baby James and the Magi

GREAT FALLS INVASION
By Joseph G. Langen

The Christmas season celebrating the birth of the Baby Jesus continues. Something new took place in our family around Christmas time this year. A baby, James, traveled with his parents from the East, specifically Abu Dhabi, to Western New York to meet his relatives. He arrived by jet, not camel. He cuddled in the arms of those who immediately loved him. His bright, inquisitive eyes explored each person, immediately captivating them with his presence. He smiled his unique smile. He never said anything at all. Yet he brought something special to each room he entered and quickly became the center of attention, drawing all eyes to himself. Babies bring a fresh perspective to each new experience. They have nothing to compare it with and delight in everything happening around them. Spend some time with a baby; Leave behind you concerns, fears and regrets; Look at life the way a baby does; Remember what that feels like; and Try it later when you feel overwhelmed. [link]
