A girl angel fresh from her bath snuggles in her robe on Christmas Eve. She cuddles her teddy bear close, whispering to her confidant her wishes for the next morning. The loyal dog and mug of cocoa under her chair keep her warm and cosy. The artist's signature acorn appears on her mug. On the inside of the piece, at the back, appear the numbers 15.21.9.5.99.3.55, referring to David Lawrence's new daughter, Catherine May, who was born at 3:21 May 9, 1999 and weighed 3.55 kg. In the interior of version 1 is the doll the angel dreams of as a gift. Version Infinity has a set of alphabet blocks inside.
