a sampling of some favorite moments:
[being here!]
[being here!]
[short-lived but very cute red Christmas ribbons]
[3 little munchkins watching Cinderella]
[so proud of her new backpack. goin' to s(ch)ool.]
[Christmas night: a vat of horchata] 
[silly brothers: click to see b.beauchaine's amazing expression]
[so so much family!]
[Christmas Eve - ultimate fusion dinner: stuffed tofu, green curry vegetables, chicken adobo, tabouleh, pear pie... so delicious] 
[c'mon vera, you can do it - 2 more bites!]moments not captured on camera:
when Castro the cat caught a bird in the house which we disposed of outside. an hour or so after the ordeal I overheard Vera talking to him in the hall: "hurt him?" I peeked in on her and she was crouched next to the cat and the poor little dead bird.
when Vera would open an especially pretty or pink present and she would try her hardest to hide a huge smile
before our Christmas dinner with 25 gathered around - little Jakey's sweet prayer of thanks
