Joyfully Waiting by Leada Wood

“Joy” watercolor by Leada Wood

The house is cleaned, decorated and quiet. Silently waiting for Christmas to come...waiting for the family to gather and celebrate another Christmas together. Waiting for the joy it brings willing the heart to remember.

Like snowflakes floating unexpectedly to earth, small kindnesses touch our lives. First one and then another, and another until at last the world is bright and shines with goodwill and once again it’s Christmas!

This is the last painting in my “Just Elfin’ Around” series for 2018 but I already have a few ideas for more paintings in 2019. I hope you have enjoyed my creations as much as I did painting them. I hope they have brought a smile to your face and brightened these wintry days.

A friend once said I was having way too much fun, which is true. I figure I might as well enjoy the life and talents I have been given, while I am able, and it sure beats daytime tv. Life is short and goes way too fast!

Wishing you a joyous Christmas and a healthy, happy holidays!
