Default Counted X-stitch Christmas Stocking - Took 4 years!

My daughter picked out this pattern about 10 years ago for her first child's Christmas stocking. I have made counted cross stitch stocking for the other grandkids, and I decided I'd getter get a jump on this one because the aida cloth was only 18 count, and also because it is a dark color. I started working on it while I was working the ER and had down time between patients. Then when I changed to Hospice I didn't have that fiddle time anymore. Well, to make a long project story short, I finally got it finished and sent off. Little Claire is 6 months, and she'd better enjoy this for the next 85 years! Yes, I've picked out the next one to do, for the next baby in a few years.
