Christmas Face

Of all the contortions the human face is capable of performing, my new favorite is

The Christmas Face.

Unfamiliar with this facial arrangement?

Look closely at our latest family picture:

FAM3

Notice Bennett’s face?

That’s it. 

The Christmas Face. 

So he says.  And since he says, it is so, simply because I’ve never been introduced to The Official Christmas Face until this year.

I always thought it was this

or this…

'”You shouldn’t have”…

“Ah, you know me so well”…

or, “Yes, you definitely should have!  I’ve wanted this forever!”

Mom called and asked if by chance I had checked your blog lately. Not really I answered...why? Christmas faces was the reply. I quickly thought back to which face I had given you...and then the sick feeling hit. Why oh why...do you love goofy faces?
