It is starting to look a lot like Christmas! We do not have snow at the elevation where I live in Hawaii, but I see many lights and decorations all over the Island. This week's honor goes to Jose Esteban Cruz for his work: "Rocking Horse." His picture is perfect; he brought memories of my childhood to the forefront. The horse looks great, but he did not stop there! He added a bridle, a mane, and a tail to complete his Christmas masterpiece that will be cherished for generations to come. The wrapped presents around the horse are just the icing on the cake. Felicitaciones José! Un trabajo muy lindo!
