about the image.
There is a picture of Laura on our mantelpiece. Last year, during advent each of the kids got a little wooden character - an angel, a reindeer and a Santa Claus. On their own, they decided to arrange these Christmas characters around Laura's picture to include her in the festivities. This image comes from that time - the reindeer and Santa are off stage, a little to the right, keeping watch. Merry Christmas, little one. -Louise.
