My New Favorite Thing


My darling daughter Alana created this amazing blown/carved glass nativity. Not only is she extremely talented, but so kind hearted and thoughtful.
My favorite gifts have always been those that are given heart to heart. I have never really cared about "things" except when it is a special gift created and given in love, like the table my Dad made for me from a piece of redwood that I hauled from a lumberyard 30 years earlier, Mom's engagement watch, book of personal history, hand crocheted afghans, precious family photo albums......oh yeah, and that big box full of Colt's Bolts!
