Ok, so this is not this year's tree. It's last year's. Not that much has changed. We have an eclectic tree composed of various ornaments, many of which each have a unique story. Some ornaments came from our childhood and were passed on to us. Others were bought on a limited budget, back in the days when my Husband and I were first together. Then there are those that were handmade. Some by the tiny toddler hands of my son. Each year, they got a little better as his motor skills improved. This is what I love about our tree. It's not just decorated for the holidays. It's part of our family story.
