Here's A Clue As To Why Christmas Means Money

[fmdog44]

From the song, "Do you hear what I hear"
"A child, a child
Shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold"
That's a wrap

If the kid is shivering in the cold, bring him a blanket and some gloves.

Dude! It's just a song.

From the song, "Do you hear what I hear"

For goodness sake, it's a reference to the Magi, the three kings in the Gospels who brought the infant Jesus gold & other precious gifts as a show of honor & reverence.

You know what would have happened if the Magi had been Three Wise Women?

First, they would have arrived on time because they would have asked for directions instead of wandering around in the desert following a star.

Second, they would have brought practical presents like warm snuggle blankets, cute little onesies and disposable diapers.

Third, after a brief interval of "adoring", they would have settled down to cleaning the stable, finding a proper bassinette for Jesus and cooking the Holy Family a nice hot nutritious meal.

Last, they would have packed a good, substantial picnic basket for the Holy Family to take with them on their flight into Egypt.

If you want a job well done, get a Wise Woman to do it......
