To everything, there is a season. And I'm not talking about the fall, winter, spring, summer... or even the Christmas season, but the seasons that come with motherhood. These seasons are typified by little things, like diapers or high chairs, soccer balls or pom poms.
If you have a teenager, you may be in the season of door-slamming and hormones. If you have a growing boy, you may be in the season of monthly shoe-shopping, as you try to keep up with your son's ever-growing feet.

Imagine if the Christmas tree traditional included beavers. Well, it does on one tree in the world. The Bluffton University tree in the Marbeck Center kiva includes a very eager beaver with angel wings. For the full effect, open the additional photos in the series.
