Well, it’s safe to say that I got a wee bit behind on my December Daily pages- which I finished tonight.  But, I’m not behind on taking time to enjoy the season and this project.  Here’s my pages up through tonight and a slice of life this last week. Dec 7th Dec 8th Dec 10 And Lastly Tonight- Still can’t believe Pominville got in a fight. ....

So, a few months back we went to the Caldwell Zoo with Lisa and Jack.  (We won’t talk about all the problems with the truck that followed that trip!).  While there I “manufactured” a shot to compare Jack then and now.  I knew I wanted a similar shot of him, so I helped myself with a little gentle push of Jack.
