Happy New Year !

Happy New Year everyone ! I wish you all the most important thing: so you and your loved ones stay in great health!

Today is the Old New Year which is celebrated in Eastern Europe, Russian and some other countries. It celebrates the start of the New Year by Julian calendar (old calendar) and falls on January 13/14. So we get to celebrate it twice :) If you'd like to know more go here.

This beautiful card is called "Winter Woods". The illustration is by Miguel, age 8 from Nicaragua. The card is made by Children's Art Project (MD Andreson Cancer Center). I bought it locally in Houston but you can find more childre's art here. Product sales benefit the emotional, educational and recreational needs of patients.
