This season of the year is also tinged with a little sadness; Last year I prefaced blog posts about my mother with a photograph of the Advent Candle
The white bear that arrived from Canada in December last year, to watch me put up the tree, and to provide hugs when I needed them.

And here's my original one, photographed in full flower this time last year.
