PEACE.

Our five year old son, Sawyer, drew this picture when our city, Boston, was on lockdown after the Marathon events in April. It's tough to explain to two small boys why you can't go outside for an entire day. So we tried to explain to them that there are good guys and bad guys in the world and that lots of good guys were out searching for one bad guy — we needed to stay indoors so they could do that. Sawyer then drew this picture with hopes that 'all animals, aliens and people' could live peacefully together.
   I thought this was an appropriate message to share for this new year.
