Madelyn: Today at school we had a party for Jesus's birthday. We had star cookies!
Tony: Do you know why the cookies were stars?
Madelyn: Yeah, because of the star over the stable.
Me: Yup, it's the Star of Bethlehem.
Tony: It's also called the Star of David.
Madelyn: Why "David"?
Tony: Because Jesus is the son of David.
Madelyn: Is David God's nickname?
