Smooch was very excited to find what Santa left him in his stocking (Balls! He is mad over balls!) We very much missed Lilly, our Boxer this year. She was so smart that when we hung the stockings up in early December she would check them EVERY DAY. On Christmas morning when she found them filled with toys and goodies she would sit very still below them, staring up and wiggling her stubby tail as hard as she could. That dog understood and appreciated the miracle of Santa Claus!
Our daughter occasionally borrows our cameras and proves to have a very good eye. She takes wonderful, intuitive photographs. She was delighted to find a camera of her own under the tree.
Poppy pug found her 13th (or is it 14th?) Christmas to be a bit of a bore. Same old same old... people giving her things, making sure she had a wonderful day full of treats.
Our day was peaceful. Punctuated by good food, good will, generous and thoughtful giving. The best thing about Christmas with our little family is that there is no
angst. Just pleasant peacefulness. It is how we like it.
