These photos were taken a few weeks ago, the beginning of the month I think. It seems like ages ago-winter felt more like autumn, Christmas still seemed like it was far enough away that I could get everything done. Literally, the world was a different place. But here we are on a sobering Monday, things still need to get done- presents need to be purchased, package need to be wrapped and I have a stack of cards that need stamps...life is different, but, surprisingly the same.

*i don't really let my political flag fly in this space, but if you are so inclined please take minute to sign this petition to urge our government to seriously consider new gun control legislation. thank you
