A tot version of the "messiah" surrounded by what appear to be frangipani bushes...LOL.

They are a very fragrant flowering shrub or small tree which in Asia is planted around sacred temples. How appropriate. On the other hand, a relative used to grow those things down here in the south. We could never remember the word "frangipani" so we called them d__k trees because that's what their thick stubby branches look like when the frost has zapped off the leaves. Fits Obama, too.

Well, that's your problem.

In Australia our frangipani are different
