    Lamb born on Christmas Eve at Ohio nativity scene

    CINCINNATI (AP) — A lamb has been born unto a Cincinnati nativity display.

    The Krohn Conservatory says that a night watchman oversaw the Christmas Eve delivery for a sheep that was part of the live-animal display.

    The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that conservatory officials say the birthing went well and the mother and lamb were doing fine. The conservatory's director says they are thinking of calling the female lamb "Merry," for "Merry Little Christmas."

    Other details weren't immediately available.

      What a pleasant little story. A sheep giving birth on Christmas Eve. No one was injured. No one died. No needless suffering. No injustice. How on earth did it make the news?

        Well, an additional detail, though maybe interesting only for those who have sheep, would be breed, and why a shepherd would have put a heavily pregnant ewe in a setting like this [though I think it's clear it all went well, 'by the Grace of the Good Shepherd...'] -those of us who have Dorsets and or Romneys would probably say, 'I bet it's one of those, since they drop 'em like dumplings -no sweat..' :) Anyway...Merry Christmas, Beautiful Little Merry!

      Jesus was the Lamb -for sinner's slain. Nice event there and nice symbolism and glad the attendant got to witness and help though probably unneeded.

        Good thing, too. It probably had no insurance.
