Not part of the original story

Our church Christmas pageant was last weekend.  Nora decided to go for an alternate interpretation of the story.  She was a shepherd (1 of 2; there was also 1 shepherd herder and 2 shepherd herder herders).  Nora felt that her first task as shepherd was to collect (some might call it "stealing") as many stuffed sheep as she could.  That kept her entertained long enough for all 3 (kind of 4) angels to appear and direct the shepherd/herder/herders to where they might find the baby Jesus in the manger. Nora toddled over to the manger, looked down at her sheep, up at the baby Jesus, down at the sheep, up at the baby Jesus, dropped the sheep, and tried to take off running with the baby Jesus.  It was quite entertaining!
