Tonight's picture was on the cover of our December 2006 Christmas card. Mattie was four and a half years old and by that point he LOVED trains. The Christmas train in the photo with Mattie was one of his favorites! He loved having a track around the tree and he especially loved switching the train on and seeing it go around the track, play Christmas music, and puff out smoke!
Quote of the day: Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas. ~ Calvin Coolidge
To all our faithful readers, I want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas. I took this photo today during a walk, and I felt that this cardinal was the perfect snapshot for the season. It was hard to believe that it was 70 degrees today in Boston.
Though I am not wild about the holidays or Christmas anymore, I do enjoy being able to walk outside and see signs of nature, which connect me to Mattie. Here are some of the photos that captured my attention!
Who would believe that we could see frogs in December? This fellow was sitting on a log, just begging for a photo!
How do you like this Christmas Turtle? Stretching his neck to the sky and appreciating the temperature!
Of course my favorite stop on the walk was to see Rocky, the horse. His stable is right near the nature walk! I am quite certain that Rocky recognized me from yesterday and when I walked away, he let out with one long and big NEIGH!
