Movie Review IV

Kidmo went to the movies! We took a group of twenty-one to C C's Pizza and to see The Nativity. It was a glorious trip. A big thank you to the sponsors, Tessa, Shannon & Heather, and Tessa's teens. Coach Shannon Waters and Toby are wonderful Godly male role models for our boys. Now, for the movie review...it was an awesome movie. But, beware, it isn't really appropriate for itty bitty ones. We had about four younger children that were frightened. The subjects that were scary for them were genocide, angelic appearances and, my favorite, circumcision. The little one who was sitting next to me asked, "What are they doing to that baby?" I himhawwwed around and finally replied, "Oooh-ummm, they are giving him some medicine!?!" And it does make sense that a movie portraying the birth of Christ would show the birthing process, but it still caught me off guard. And whenever angels appear in scripture, they do say "Do not be afraid" for a reason. So, other than a few little ones scrambling into loving arms, the movie was wonderful. I cannot wait to rent or buy it. It's a keeper forever and always.
