I grew up playing with a wooden nativity puzzle just like this one my dad made for my boys. I love the simplicity!

The first nativity set we purchased after we were married:

These few pieces are all that remains of another childhood nativity set:

I just have to comment on your childhood nativity set with but a few sad little pieces left.
I was just talking to my mom this Christmas about the exact same set we had when I was little. We discovered we're down to Mary, Jesus, a shepherd and a lamb. Sweet memories.
And I LOVE the nativity your father made. Beautiful.
