Serious question:

I sometimes see Christians pray to "baby Jesus". Is there any spiritual distinction between "baby Jesus" and adult Jesus? Is one more appropriate for certain christian prayers than the other?

@freemo

AFAIK, it's generally linked to the nativity celebrations, i.e. the Adoration of the Magi and the ceremonies surrounding Christmas, where Jesus is depicted as a child. Whether this hypostasis has any special powers attributed to it, I couldn't tell you off the top of my head, but if you know the denomination, I can ask colleagues who are specialists.
