Faces of Christmas

Christmas 2014 that is.  For each of these faces will be just a little bit different by Christmas 2015. Or Christmas 2016.  Not to mention Christmas 2025.

And I love each of these faces, so I want to remember them as they look right now.  A couple of these are brand-new faces this year.  Others have already gone through changes since they first appeared.  I recognize similarities of these faces in other faces I know, which simply adds to the love.

Here's one of the brand-new faces.  Hi Handsome.
Or should I say, "Hi Blue Eyes."
Here's the other brand-new face.  Hi Beautiful.
Make that "Hi, Sleepy Beauty."  Oh, and just for the record, it is the little face on the right that is the brand-new one.  But you're right.  Both faces are beautiful.

This little close-up face happened during a quick "stopped by Mimi's house for a moment" treat.

While these are little Christmas brunch eating faces.
We have pie-eating faces.
Elf likes pie, too.

And a couple of cousin pie-eating faces.
Pie tastes extra good on a small airplane table, especially if you have a couple of puppies close by to help you taste!

We have scary faces.
And "jus' chillin'" faces.  Cause dads be cool like that.
We have musical band faces.  Solo face.
And duet faces.  Cause grandpas are cool band members, too.
We have train faces.
And more train faces.
And more train faces.
And other train faces.
Ok, wait.  Maybe those aren't faces exactly.  But they are boys having fun with "choo-choos"!

I like cousin faces.
And aunt faces.
And who doesn't love a mother's love face?
And finally, we have Grandpa carrying a couple of cousins faces - an event that I bet we won't see any other year ever again.
Cause as faces change, bodies grow.  And get a little less carry-able each year.

Which is all part of why we need to remember the faces we have in our lives this Christmas. Just the way they are today.

Love,
Mimi/Grandma Deb
