I was in pain as I walked on the stony dirt road. My hooves started to hurt and my back was in so much pain, but I knew I had to keep going for Joseph, Mary and the baby. When we got to Bethlehem all of the rooms were packed full of people. But the innkeeper said, "There is a barn available." So, we took it. Mary had the baby and I felt all of the painful feelings come out and soft holy feelings come in. I am so glad that He was going to be our new King. Jesus!" Later I came down to Joseph and said, "You will be a father. Your son is Jesus!" I watched to make sure the family was safe and told other angels to share with the shepherds that the saviour had been born! M x Ma Bethlehem. The next day we got on the donkey and rode to Bethlehem. When we got there we looked for some inns but there weren't any available. Once of the inn keepers said I have a stable that you could stay in. And we said yes so we went into the stable. While I was there, by baby was born. Joseph and I wrapped him carefully and placed him in a manger. Afterwards a shepherd came to see Jesus. They gave my baby gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

That night Jesus was born and he was going to be King!!! Olivia D ­ Mary Once night an Angel came to me and said "Mary you are going to have a baby. His name will be Jesus." I went to go tell Joseph. We both went to get a donkey and went straight to Bethlehem. We were about to arrive at Bethlehem and we looked everywhere to find a place to stay. But we could not find a place to go. Then we found a stable. At last my baby Jesus was born! Three wisemen came and gave us Frankincense, Gold and Myrrh. Joseph and I were so happy that our Saviour was born.
