Now you see it, now you don't!

Could that really be white flakes drifting down from the sky this morning?  I had to do a double-take.  Yes, no mistake - snowflakes.  It lasted all of four minutes and then the sun came out and it is now so bright I am having to squint at the computer!!  Cannot even say it was nice while it lasted.  Wonder if we will get anymore?

I had intended to do some more about Crickhowell today but, as usual, I am getting sidetracked.  I had a "prezzie" yesterday.  A short time ago I joined a group which is where I have been getting some of my signature graphics and graphics in general.  Well, I try and take part in group activities, so I posted a picture of myself on that site and also one of our "Christmas Elf" - Nathan in his Santa suit.  Oh by the way, for those of you that were wondering - there was no prize for him being picked as the most popular seasonal image, it was just a bit of fun on the part of AOL.   Well, the manager of the group picked up on his picture and wrote and told me what a lovely picture it was.  I naturally wrote back and thanked her.  Early yesterday evening, I logged on there and saw a message addressed to me saying there was a " prezzie" for me.  I went to look and found that she had made this for me:-

Isn't it lovely!!!!  Yes, I know it is not Christmas anymore and by next Christmas he will have changed and grown so much.  However, I think it was such a kind and generous thing to do and just surprise me with it.  So I had to share it with all of you.  I think that people who make graphics are so artistic and talented.

I had some very nice comments on the baby photo of me that I posted yesterday and Sylvia has come up with a great idea.  She suggested that I ask you all to post baby pictures of yourself on your journals.  Now, before you groan, I know from the comments that not all of you have baby pictures of yourselves.  I do understand.  So, if you want to join in (and it might be fun) -

COMPETITION 

 I  am asking all those who want to take part, to post a picture of themselves  let us say - under the age of five or, failing that, whatever picture you have of yourself as a child.  I think that would be fair.

I do hope some of you will join in the spirit of things.  I am grateful to Sylvia for the idea and it is just a bit of fun and something different for us to do.  So, if and when you post your "little me" picture, come and leave a comment for me saying you have done so and do not forget to leave your journal address so that I and everybody else can come and pay you a visit! 

 I logged on this morning and read my email, I got another beautiful signature from the wonderful Angel so, I am signing off with that one.  Looking forward to all your pictures!!

And the first to participate is  ~ the lovely Sara!! Well done Sara.  All who take part will get a mention on my journal when all the pics are in!!!!

 

PLEASE NOTE  I am now asking people to email their baby photos to me as well as posting on their journals because I have something in mind.  All will be revealed!
