I wonder what the shepherds thought?

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!” (Luke 2:10-14 ESV)

I wonder what went through the minds of the sheopards on that night?  After wrapping their head around all they had seen, I wonder what they thought baby Jesus would grow up to be like.  I wonder if they knew that from that night on, people would be seeking Jesus forever.
