The decorations on the table for Christmas Eve--the boys found and put up the tree all by themselves!
Jesus in the manger amongst the cows, goats, sheep, and donkeys--not in an inn, house, hotel, or big hospital and not among crowds or important people.
Homemade pizza--Mindy's family tradition!
Birthday Cake for Jesus--my family tradition!
There are 7 colors of sprinkles to add to the white cake--that's one for each of us on the Toposa team!
Me and Mindy with the completed cake! (Can you tell that we are sweating on Christmas Eve? Maybe? Just a little?)
Davis, Benton, and Walker with the cake!
The cake.
Jesus is:
Lord of Heaven (silver),
King of Kings (purple),
Light of the World (yellow),
Servant (brown),
Creator (green),
Perfect and Pure (white)
and Savior (red).
We each changed the words from a Christmas carol to a more Toposa style song! Mindy and I chose "12 Days of Christmas" about 12 days on which the Toposa gave to us things like..."2 clinic runs"...
"And a story group under a tree!"
Shannon chose "Jingle Bells"--
"Jingle bells, AK-47 shells, Toposa all around..."
And the boys picked "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"--
"The most famous Toposa word of all...
Nyakinai dang..." (which means give to me also!)
