My friend, Dan, will tell you that Wittchens love Christmas. This is very true, and when I was working on ideas for December’s illustration, I came up with myriad Christmas-themed possibilities. Because I love all things Christmas-related, I was having a hard time deciding between the concepts. Luckily, procrastination helped me out again, and I found myself suddenly at the end of the month with the new year looming in less than 12 hours. So instead of a Christmas theme, I decided to reflect a little on the turn of the year and specifically on the welcoming of the new year into your life when the clock strikes midnight.
