Merry Christmas to all on Flickr.
When we got a tree I had images of a lovely festive scene in our hallway but I had not actually considered our two cats, that seem to have morphed into monkeys, and a toddler who may just have a future as a lumberjack. Between the three of them the tree and decorations are taking a battering and I wonder what will be left of it by the end of the festive period ;-)
...or as it's called in America Punch Bowl cake, this is a choclate cherry version I made on Christmas last year.

An eye-catching holiday light display was installed at the entrance of the river boardwalk in Steveston, Richmond BC. Many people stopped and took photos of it. A family with kid passed by, the kid was very curious and interested so the family spent quite a bit of time there. This photo was taken when they were leaving, To the kid, I was thinking this must be one of his favorite memories of Christmas :)

Christmas Eve 2018 wasn't a white Christmas, but instead had crystal clear, sunny blue skies. As the sun approached sunset (about 3:45 pm at that time of year), I was able to capture the contrasting warm sunlight with the cool blue sky, and combine it with some attractive light and shade through this woodland scene.
I just wanted to take a moment of your time and thank your for all your warm and comforting comments on my last post. The loss of my son has been very difficult for me and my family, and having so much support from friends, family, and my fellow flickerites has meant so much to me.
A neighbor of mine brought over this lovely poem and I thought it would be appropriate to share with all of you. Hopefully it can comfort some of you who have also lost loved ones this year.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and an even better New Year. I'll be back posting and commenting again after the holidays.
My First Christmas in Heaven
I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below,
With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars, reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular! Please, wipe away the tears,
For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear,
But earthly music can't compare with the Christmas choir here.
I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring
For it's beyond description to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me. I see the pain inside your heart,
But I am not so far away--we're really not apart.
So be happy for me, loved ones. You know I hold you dear.
Be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I'm sending you a special gift from my Heavenly home above.
The gift of happy memories of times of joy and love.
At times when you remember me, I hope it makes you smile.
I even hope amid the tears you'll laugh a little while.
Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do.
For I can't count the blessings or the love He has for you
After all, Love is the gift, more precious than pure gold.
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.
So have a Joyous Christmas--and wipe away that tear,
Please remember and be glad
I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

This Poinsettia is a Euphorbia pulcherrima.
The ‘flower’ is in the centre.
The plant's association with Christmas began in 16th century Mexico, where legend tells of a young girl who was too poor to provide a gift for the celebration of Jesus' birthday.
The tale goes that the child was inspired by an angel to gather weeds from the roadside and place them in front of the church altar.
Crimson "blossoms" sprouted from the weeds and became beautiful poinsettias.
From the 17th century, Franciscan friars in Mexico included the plants in their Christmas celebrations.
The star-shaped leaf pattern is said to symbolise the Star of Bethlehem, and the red colour represents the blood sacrifice through the crucifixion of Jesus...
Where I come from, we call this a 'Christmas Star'
There is a common misconception that the poinsettia is highly toxic.
This is not true; it is mildly irritating to the skin or stomach and may sometimes cause diarrhoea and vomiting if eaten.
As with all Euphorbias, they bruise easily and give off a white 'milk' when broken, so those sensitive to latex may suffer an allergic reaction.
I wish you all the very best, and thank you for all your kind words, time, comments and faves. M, (*_*)
