Favorite quotes of the day:
"Someday I'm going to surprise you and decorate the tree all by myself (imagine me registering pleased surprise) and I'm going to put every single ornament on (I'm joyfully thinking that he's got Real Christmas Spirit at last) and they'll all be right together!" proclaimed adult son #2 as he held his hands showing about six inches square, knowing that he really had me going there for a bit. Hey, at least he kept me company while I finally decorated the tree early Christmas morning. And he made me a delicious bowl of Apple Spice oatmeal for breakfast.
"Something that I've learned about your mother is that she never thinks there are enough ornaments on the tree," said my husband to aforesaid son. I promptly informed both of them that it's been over a decade since Every Single Ornament We Own has appeared on a Christmas tree at the same time. Which is my way of admitting I'm guilty as charged.
"Wow, these Legos are older than I am!" marvelled my nephew as he opened a pack from Santa. The nephew is a teenager and the pack was dated 1989. The Queen Mother has a history of misplacing gifts which is apparently genetic. My kids shake their heads at my forgetfulness but I have every expectation that they've inherited the same gene. Although they do favor their dad so maybe the Forgetful Gene stops with me and there will be whole generation deprived of vintage Legos in original packing.
Another Christmas has come and gone, bringing memories of times past and creating new stories to tell. Each Christmas with its own character, each to be enjoyed and cherished.
Happy Christmas to all and to all a Good Night.
Bring joy,

Great picture. Glad you had a fun time with that tree and your ornaments.
