I mentioned elsewhere recently, that as I trimmed the Christmas tree this year, I remembered so many times of my childhood and my daughters — because of the ornament that were made throughout the years.  Many years I did not do a tree, but wow, how grateful I am that either I or my mother saved all those crafts.  Making things, whether in Scouts, school,  Sunday School, or home is a great tradition.

Have a wonderful, blessed Christmas.
