Beautiful, Stacey. Santa's face has not aged at all, just his hair. How does he keep his skin so smooth and young looking? This makes me believe that Santa is for the very, very young.

Hope you had a very Happy Christmas, and will have a healthful and prosperous new year...and congratulations on your POTD, Stacey! #9131547
