Christmas is a still a little bittersweet for me because three years ago we were planning my brother's funeral at this time, but children are great for putting melancholy thoughts to one side and you're so right .. there are so many people whose lives are filled with tragedy and we are incredibly lucky.<br />Wishing you and your family a fantastically merry Christmas with lots of snowy outings and you have much to celebrate.

What a wonderful bit of news before christmas. <br /><br />By the way I meanly said to my girls the other day 'you do realise I buy all the presents and wrap them'.

The days between 1st Dec and Christmas seem to whizz past in a blur. I do my wrapping at night with some cheesy Christmas songs and a glass of wine and no interruptions - it's quite nice!<br /><br />I love your Christmas decor and the lino-cut/woodcut cards. I collect them as well from my local art shop so lots of my cards are empty inside too!
