Did this quick sketch from our family’s poinsettia, so characteristic of the festive season.
Fun fact – poinsettias need at least 14 hours of darkness per day for 2 months to create their flaming red leaves.
It takes just one split second flash of light to restart the cycle, and result in the plant’s months-long efforts going to waste.
The world has been fighting hard against COVID-19 for the entire year, and let’s look out for each other, and be a little bit more patient as scientists and healthcare professionals bring vaccines to countries around the world.
Don’t be that split-second flash of carelessness in a year of vigilance!
Wishing everyone a safe and lovely countdown, and may 2021 be a better year for all!
