I am not a collector. Okay, maybe a sort of collector. I have a few teacups and saucers (mostly inherited from my grandmothers) and an assortment of childrens’ books (but only the classics, or ones with super cute illustrations). If I was going to collect anything in earnest, however, I would collect these:

These little nativity scenes are adorable and, at least to me, made only more adorable by their miniature nature. I can think of little that is more precious than a teeny baby Jesus. I display these creches all year long.
My sister brought this one to me from her vacation in Mexico. It came in a little 2 inch by 3 inch silver-plated box. The photo quality is not very good and I think one of the wise men is AWOL (perhaps he preferred the Central American climate), but I don’t mind. The cow, the sheep and the donkey are too cute.
This one, however, is my favorite.

Again, this one is from my sister’s travels to Mexico. Hey, it just dawned on me, if I could ever get to Mexico, I could start a real collection!
