Six-year-old Angela looks at the naked baby Jesus in her local church in Limerick, Ireland, circa 1912, and thinks he looks cold. She wonders why his mother, or one of the shepherds, doesn't put a blanket over him. She decides to take him to her bedroom and wrap him in her own blanket.

In Job 12"7-10 we are instructed to look to the beasts and learn from them. During my time living in Yellowstone National Park I had the opportunity to see and observe the way animals live and interact in the park.
