To all my friends around the world....
Happy Christmas! followed by a healthy New Year!
Signing off for a little while now, taking time to just 'be', and to appreciate the calm and peace of Christ's birth. Everything is done, presents wrapped and distributed, sewing finished, letters and cards sent. Time to stop, listen to Carols, ....breathe.
This lovely painting of the birth of Jesus is by Federico Barocci, 1526 - 1612.
It's so tender, very moving and poignant, a moment away from the commercialism of today.
