Christmas Finery

There was a pretty gift bag on our front porch yesterday before we left. Inside, beneath the brightly colored tissue paper, was a bandana for Lucy. Buffalo plaid on one side and little candy canes on the other made it the perfect holiday accessory, and tucked in the bag next to it were two little drawstring pouches. When we opened them we found a couple of masks sewn to match Lucy's bandana. The collection was handmade by our neighbor, and her thoughtfulness made us smile. Even so, I couldn't help sighing as I tried my mask on. "It's so nice," I said to Heidi, "but this might be the saddest Christmas gift I ever got."

  1. Ah, yes, a little sad, but adorable at the same time. You must take a family pic.
