#reindeer
December wasn’t super good for me, but I thought I’d share one thing that cheered me up anyway :)

So two years ago or something I made this blue and white bead bracelet where the theme was a winter sled. I chose blue reindeer beads to match the whole theme. Recently it was sold to one of my mom’s friends.

Children are responsible for training reindeer for riding, because the reindeer are not strong enough to carry an adult until they are fully grown, and it works best to introduce them to the idea early. A two year old reindeer, old enough for a child to ride, is called dongor; an adult reindeer is a hoodai.
