The nativity scene is called the preslplo in Italy, the naclmlento in Spain and the cr&che In France.

It’s so easy to get caught up in the commercialism of the holidays that we often forget that perhaps the greatest gift we can give someone we care about is time. Around the world, trips are being planned to visit families and friends by planes, trains and automobiles. But not everyone will have a chance to visit with the ones they love during the holidays. Many of us will be sending cards, notes and e-mail messages, and even holiday greetings through the Internet to tell people we care about them. And last, and certainly not least, is old faithful - the telephone. It’s been connecting us to the special people in our lives for years. Why not pick it up and tell your families and friends that you love them and miss them. The sound of a voice dose to home can surely make our days much merrier, warm our hearts and bring smiles to our faces.
