When the journeyed to find the Christ Child, they met with as she was busy with her housework. The told her the reason for their travels and asked her to join them. She declined. You know how it is when you are in the zone getting things done. No one else is going to get this mess clean.
So they left and La Befana got her chores completed. Now she was able to seek the infant Messiah but she couldn’t find him. The elderly woman visits from house to house on Epiphany Eve with a sack of gifts that she leaves for the children. When Epiphany dawns the children celebrate.
I decided to revise the for La Befana and Epiphany. La Befana is usually depicted as an elderly woman or witch with a broom and a sack full of presents. As La Befana flies over the evergreen pine trees she is bathed in the light from the glow in the dark moon and scattered light from the aurora borealis crystal stars.
