I know that this is wrong, but whenever I think of a camel, I think that that is what Mary rode on. Now, I know that she rode on a donkey, but for a split-second I alsways think of a camel.
I do know, however, that the wise men rode on camels.

Hi Emily!
Thanks so much for the help, and the comment on my blog! It's always great to meet a new friend! Can I add you to my friends list?
First of all, I really like the snowfall effect on the blog. Yours is the first place I've seen that...maybe I'll copy it. :)
Second, did you know that camels are my all-time favorite animal? Yep, they sure are. They're amazing creatures, and without them, the civilization of the world would have been much different.
Third, HOW do we know Mary rode a donkey? My aunt posed this question to my dad...who posed it to us over supper one evening. I'm stumped...I searched the Gospels but can't find any proof of it. Do we just assume that a woman so far advanced in pregnancy would surely have ridden on SOMETHING?! Let me know if you figure out the mystery. :)
