I love your stories but why do you depict Joseph as 25 years older. There is nothing to indicate this. They had at least 7 kids including Jesus I have heard that some Catholics teach he was old and had children so as to keep Mary a perpetual Virgin. Again no scripture to back this up. I believe he was young as she was and their fathers had both agreed to the betrothal and He was a righteous man, believing in the Messiah not yet come, He listened to the dreams and he loved Mary and loved Jesus as his own sons and daughters he had with Mary. Your story is wonderful but I would have made them a young couple in the booth. Maybe people would have stared at their youth to be pregnant so young in this day and age.

Merry Christmas to you and your family.
