Twelve Days of Christmas: Day 2

(Poussin, The Nativity, 1650s)


Don't you love the looks of wonder on Mary's and Joseph's faces? It makes me think of Michael Card's song about Joseph, "How Can It Be?":

"Lord, all my life I've been a simple carpenter; how can I raise a King?"

I haven't heard this song. But I do like Michael Card. How come it didn't get the play time that "Mary Did you know?" gets?

Merry Christmas on this second day of Christmas.
