Merry and Bright

Scotty believes.  We had a box of 10 specialty bakery cookies for Santa.  By the time My Boys were finished 'snacking', he was left trying to convince me that one cookie would be enough for Santa.  haha!

 

This week we watched the lunar eclipse in full awe of nature's miracles.  The weather was stormy that day, but at just the right time that night, the clouds were blown away and the sky was crisp and clear, the air was cold but without breeze, and Erik laid in the driveway and told me, "I can't believe how spherical the moon looks!"...it was the perfect solstice gift.

The rest of our week was spent visiting family and friends, doing a bit of shopping (Erik) and a bit of making (me), and spending entire days (and nights) without even leaving our house.  I'm feeling grateful (always) and wistful (slightly) and overwhelmed (vaguely) and if I know one thing, it's that I'm so glad to be right here, right now.

Merry Christmas!
