We put up our tree today. The children were a flutter with excitement. Every year we carefully hang the ornaments only to discover we forgot to put the lights on first. This year we did not forget to put the lights on first. . .
we forgot the garland.
And like each past year, between groans and protest, we had to take everything off. The garland was wrapped around the tree followed by a second aplication of read balls, precious trinkets and shiny bells. This is our Christmas tradition. What's yours?
