Story of the Birth of Jesus

An angel told Mary that she wasgoing to have a special son from God. Then the angel went and told Joseph. ThenJoseph got upset because- well I’m not  sure why- and then they gotmarried.

Then Caesar Augustus charged taxesand everybody had to go where they were born. So Joseph and Mary got all theirstuff packed and went to Bethlehem for the taxes. And they needed a place tostay. So they searched, like, all Bethlehem. But then they found aman that said there was a stable. So there in a manger, er, a feedingtrough, I guess, baby Jesus was born.

 And on the hill there wereshepherds tending their flocks by night and behold an angel came to them andtold them do not be afraid for baby Jesus was born and this will be a clue to you-he was wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. Then amultitude of angels began to sing glory to God in the highest and on earth,peace and goodwill. And so they went and seen baby Jesus and then they went andtraveled everywhere telling about the good news, right?

And in the east three wise men werefollowing a star to see God’s king, er, to see baby Jesus. And when he wasabout two or three years old they got there and presented their gifts to him.But then they went away really fast because Herod was wanting to kill babyJesus. Fortunately he did not kill baby Jesus for a long time.
