Santa Felix

I had a long descriptive entry with several pictures ready to post. It had pictures of Felix doing all sorts of adorable things, including a picture of Felix performing a mind meld on his cousin Rooney. Then my computer inexplicably restarted and I lost all that I composed along with the will to try to put that post together again. That was a couple of weeks ago and only now, after the pain has subsided, can I post again. So, with that, I bring you SANTA FELIX.

Felix had a lovely Christmas, his Grandma came up from Los Angeles to spend it with him. His aunts, uncles, and cousins came by on Christmas Eve. After a tasty breakfast and exchanging gifts Christmas morning, Santa Felix traveled north to visit more family. From his great-grandmother, Santa Felix was given a magical singing ball that displayed all kinds of flashing lights and moved in odd ways under it's own power. "What is the manner of this magic? What is the source of power for this remarkable sphere?", Santa Felix asked himself, "I see no hand of man upon it's smooth features, no tethered horses pulling to and fro", Santa Felix pondered, "perhaps a miniature enchanted dragon with a sweet, melodic song, and expiration ablaze in multi-hued luminescence is imprisoned within the orb's core that causes the ball to evade my grasp". Santa Felix was soon distracted by the crisp metallic wrapping paper nearby and formed theories on the essence of its shine.
