Countdown to Christmas Day 16 (Magical Mouse House)


Happy 16th day of December! This little guy is cosied up on the sofa with his stuffed bear, waiting for Christmas to arrive. This is how I feel pretty much every night during the Christmas season. I absolutely love this time of year. The magical feeling in the air, beautiful Christmas light displays, dreaming of wonderful things to come in the new year, and hopes for more love in the world around us. Do you have any special wishes during this time of year?

  1. An adorable picture, the little guy looks so cozy and safe. One of my Christmas wishes would be for everyone to find peace, there is so much turmoil in our world these days.

  5. THAT'S the house for ME on a winter's day!!! SO cozy! :) For me there is a feeling in the air each holiday season where it really feels that people are just nicer to each other across the board. They smile more, they say hello to strangers and they seem to be in the spirit. So I often find myself wishing everyone could hold onto that a bit longer and not let it go. Maybe it's the magic of the lights and displays, or the chill in the air (for those of us who live in a climate like that). . . I've lived several places where little white lights were left up in trees lining the streets or along shopping plaza walkways all year around and they do seem to evoke a certain spirit but then, it IS extra special when all the lovely lights appear in November and are gone in January. More like the brief flowers of the summer season. I wouldn't appreciate them nearly as much if they bloomed endlessly all year around.

  6. Your countdown illustrations are fantastic! What a wonderful (and fun!) idea! (I really like how you animated the snow on one too!)

  7. I love this little mouse. When I was a kid, (and even now) my favorite books were the ones with illustrations of little creatures in their houses.
