Send him over to the east coast of Florida and I will teach him how to ride the unicycle! They are lots of fun. I learned to ride one when I was about ten. Bought one for my 13 year old about two years ago, but her interest waned before she totally mastered it.

I hate the day after Christmas...the worst is when you see someone's Christmas tree on the curb the day or two after. So sad to take it all down! Do you have secret elves who prepared that wonderful food for you and decorated like that? Very Impressive!

Where did you get the darling stroller for Nella? Would love to purchase one for my little one. She is 14 months old and needs something to "push". She is at the very very beginning stages of walking. Think it will be awhile yet. (She shares Nella's almond eyes)! God bless!!

I love the wooden doll stroller! Great gift.

Love the pictures and love the string tradition!

We have a 2 year old daughter and this year we put out reindeer food for Rudolph and the other reindeer...Zoe was SO excited! And the look on her face when she ran in the room Christmas morning...I'll never forget it!

Thanks for reminding me (and all of your readers) to look for all those great moments and remember them.

I noticed your art work behind one of the couches in the photo below "surveying proof of reindeer" 6 squares on the wall behind Lainey's head and it just really seemed to me that in your ever encompassing Christmas spirit that it could be fun for you to wrap them up with Christmas paper/ribbon. You could also make a surprise behind the paper/back ... like a Christmas coloring book, or felt paperdolls, or a Christmas music CD... and then unwrap open one a week and 1 on Christmas eve & 1 Christmas Day (or just leave wrapped w/o surprises for the fun of it). Wouldn't it be fun to tear a corner so the girls could see a bit of holiday glitz but not know what is there ... like photos of Mrs Santa, Santa Claus, #1 elf, Rudolph, group hug picture...

I started reading your blog about a month ago, and I loved your words so much, that I actually went to the beginning and read every post you've written. I think you are an amazing mother, writer, and photographer. Can't wait for the book. Also, I love your Christmas traditions. I'm going to have my nieces for Christmas next year, and I will be using your reindeer food idea for them so that "santa knows where to find them". You really are an inspiration. I only hope I can be half the mother that you are when I have children of my own. Hope your family has a wonderful new year!

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Kelle! Thank you for all the inspiration you give me, the topics to ponder, the photography lessons and being an authentic voice and an advocate for the belief I hold dear: What matters in life are the people you love and how well you love them.

I have two questions for you, photo related-
1) What kind of camera bag do you use, when you have one?

2) What kind of photo strap do you use?

Thank you so much, and Merry Christmas again!
