Mom’s Christmas Story

Or I was thinking of calling it “The Unwanted Toy.”

This is a story Mom recalled to me about a Christmas from her childhood. I don’t know why, but it seemed such a sad story! I felt sorry for Mom, Grandma, and the unwanted stuffed kitty cat… A teeny mistake might go a long way in a kid’s life. Anyway, I just wanted to record this holiday story in comic form.  It took me a while, and playing with the paneling and set-up to get this right, I’m still not sure if I got the mood down.  Anyway, many thanks to Mom, for telling me the story and giving me the Bulgarian text.

Have a safe and sound holiday everyone! And to my friends and family who have been in pain/stress this past month, take it easy, and I hope you feel better! You know who you are!

    This is such a touching story. I’m really liking how Glass Urchin is turning out.
