This is how I generally lay it out. Baby Jesus in the middle, with the other characters surrounding it and facing slightly toward the manger, but mostly out to the room.
In it's new home, I often find Morgan playing with it. I don't mind; it isn't breakable or anything. Yesterday before going to bed, I was turning a lamp off right next to this little table and noticed that my Nativity wasn't how I left it.
While Morgan played with it, he rearranged it into what is surely a more accurate representation of how the first Christmas night looked.
Which reminds me. A week or so ago, a lady from the ward came over briefly to speak to me about our shared calling. We had just decorated for Christmas, and Morgan wanted to share his excitement about it. So, while us adults were trying to discuss things Morgan was shouting, "It's Christmas time, it's Christmas time!" Then, to my surprise and pleasure, he said, "And Jesus time!"
