Christmas tree

It's that time of the year again ... to put up the Christmas tree. It's hard work to put it up, and even harder to keep it afterwards. But it's always a joy to see the Christmas tree, and even more so to see the happiness on the kids' faces.

This year, both kids helped me to decorate the tree. They patiently waited for me to put up the tree and the lights, and were so delighted when I opened up the boxes of decorations.

They have so much fun with the tree - every day, they'd shift the decor items at the lowest part of the tree (wherever they can reach) from one spot to another. And I came home one day to find an additional decor item, courtesy of Aaron!
