I love it all...it is a time of so many memories. I remember where each ornament came from. Joe and I traveled a lot and we bought a lot of great "stuff" for Christmas. It makes him seem near when I unwrap them and hang them on the tree. My home is decorated(I got it done the day after Thanksgiving) and it looks so pretty and peaceful. It is a sweet time of reflection. I think about when the kids were small and all of the wonderful trips to get the tree, wonderful smells of Christmas baking, wrapping all the gifts, etc. It makes me smile and even cry a little...sweet sorrow. (I used to wonder what that meant...now I know!)
