Wanting to ensure their spots on Santa’s nice list, my niece and nephew agreed to humor me and pose for some festive photos.
Gracie’s cat, Maddie, joined her for a few shots.


Kaden gave me a few goofy grins.


Then they shared a few holiday hugs and a mistletoe kiss.


If these two can stop pestering each other for even just the time it took me to press the shutter button in these photos, then I believe there’s hope for everyone else on planet Earth to put aside their differences for a little while and come together in the celebration of the holiday season. We all could use a dose of peace on Earth and good will toward men.
If you’re reading this, I wish you a very happy holiday season and the good fortune to share it with the people you love.
