We have had yet another delightful Epiphany season. We knew you would want to know that we arrived safely (though Herod tried to fool us yet again.) The toddler is a wonder to behold and I think he loved his gifts - though his mother took them away from him for safekeeping - but we completely understand. We hope he can use them later in life.
We are heading back now but are taking our time as we've met so many other wise ones on our journey . Tell the leprechaun that we will probably miss him this year as we probably won't return before his big day in March.
Please enjoy the photos we've enclosed of our compadres. What a joy to travel!
Epiphany Blessings!
The Wise Men
P.S. The camel is doing splendidly...what a help he has been!
Toddler Christ: A Collect
"Toddler Christ,
before whom Wise Men knelt,
after they had foolishly aided a tyrant
who wanted to destroy you:
Make us, in the face of dangerous power,
as crafty as snakes and as harmless as doves,
so that we know when to be silent,
when and how to speak,
and when to take another road,
in your name. Amen"
