Family.

12.27

If you only consider sweets, snacks, and desserts, the kid's not picky at all.

12.26

It was all the things I want from a snowstorm: warm drink, kids playing outside, good book, soft couch, lots of windows.

12.25

I knew it would make him so happy.

12.24

Sitting with them, sticky candy cane hands and all, was the nicest part of the evening.

12.22

Genuine surprise and delight. What more could you want on a Christmas morning?

12.21

Every detail was exactly the way he wanted it. And it was fun for all of us.

I like going to work. I can always spin something, labeling myself as lazy. This is no exception.

I wondered what the ducks must think about the music and decoration in their home. It was bafflingly beautiful to me.

12.16

It's such a low-key event. I don't know why they love it like they do. But as long as they do, we'll keep going.

12.15

I didn't have the patience to finish it. So I wandered around while they toiled. And they succeeded.

12.11

12.09

It is a nice venue, but I miss the ceiling, the windows, the cookies, and the candy.

12.08

Seeing this made me inordinately happy.

12.06

They love completely, be it person or inanimate object. They are devoted.

12.05

It was a box of unofficial Christmas. So many little things to enjoy.

12.03

I was there to capture their family in pictures. But I turned around and had to get this moment of my own.

12.02

The idea of the sketch book was a place to keep all the drawings organized. His idea was to tear them all out and decorate the apartment.
