How sad is it that I want to look like a mannequin? A child mannequin, no less. Those sleek black bobs. Those big blue eyes. Love these images.

Oh what a joy it must be to live among such imaginative and creative people! This is so stunning and vibrant - effervescent. How funny that my son and I were laughing today as we decorated the tree about the 'Christmas walrus' and 'Christmas flamingo' and 'Christmas dolphin' ornaments.
Merci, merci, Tara, et joyeux Noel!
