I was just wondering, do you think the person who wrote the Christmas Story had ever actually been *in* a barn..................?
I'm thinking it went more like this........
And the Baby Jesus loved them all the same...............
A Short Christmas Story by Fox
c. 2010
Well....'tis true......the breath of the animals did keep the Baby Jesus warm.......
'Course, the goat ate most of the manger and the sheep wandered off when one of the Wise Men left the barn door open....
The donkey placed a well aimed kick at Joseph's shin...which was kind of adding insult to injury because Joseph was already feeling kinda left out as it was....
The cow farted in that small space and even though he excused himself it caused an akward moment....
I really can't speak for the camels.
But the Yellow Dog....the Yellow Dog stayed right by the Baby Jesus' side......
Though Mary lost it when the Belgiums tracked in mud and screamed 'was everybody brought up in a barn?'......in the end it was a happy day after all!
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas and Blessed Yule Mimi! You had me cracking up with "the real story!"
Those cows. We have some next door. I think you were spot on with that description. Stinky cows. Stinky, stinky cows!
Now this has to be a whole lot more accurate!
goats, then cows are the largest supplies of methane to the environment.
did you know that?
Go goats!
Oh yes much more accurate!! and I see you're parietal to the yellow lab!! hehe
I enjoyed that - especially the bit about the sheep wandering out when one of the Wise Men left the barn door open {:) Merry Christmas Mimi!
