Silent Night

After hearing the Christmas story and singing "Silent Night", a Sunday School Class in Sao Paulo, Brazil was asked to draw what they thought the Nativity Scene might have looked like....
One little fellow did a good likeness of Joseph, Mary and the baby Jesus, but off to the side was a roly-poly figure.
The teacher, afraid that he had somehow worked St. Nick into the scene asked him who that was. She wasn't sure whether she was relieved or even more worried when the boy responded, "Oh, that's Round John Virgin."
