Even when times are sad, the beauty and innocence of a child does wonders to heal a broken heart.
Especially when said child is this cute. I took him on an airplane with trepidation in my heart, but my little champion did splendidly. He met his cousins for the first time, and dressed up and went trick-or-treating. He liked being part of the group. He is oh, so fierce and ferocious, don’t you think I already had the fabric from previous projects, and only needed to buy the fur. It was $20/yd, but I just bought 6 inches and had plenty for the effect. I like the boots and hat the best.

1. Seek knowledge and understanding of depression in its many forms and the myriad ramifications thereof; causes and consequences and how they feed and fuel one another.
2. Learn warning signs.
3. Communicate more openly with my family.
4. Consider No. 1 prior to expressing opinions while endeavoring to accomplish No. 3 so that any words that come forth from me are edifying and if not edifying, then simple unadulterated truth. In either case, spoken in love and love only.
5. Find answers that I can give the children should they bring their tears to me.
6. Honor life more.
7. Love myself more.
8. Live more simply.
9. Impart in my child the deep and abiding knowledge that I love him unconditionally now and forever, no matter what.
10. Savor life in all its moments, mundane or not.
11. Forgive.
12. Love more.
