Do you have any family traditions with regards to Christmas ornaments? My son made this ornament nine years ago, and it’s still holding up! It’s a paper ornament, and so I’m surprised that it’s retained its quality over the years.
I usually don’t make ornaments. I’m not a crafty person! For the first few years of my marriage, I bought the annual White House Christmas ornaments, but then I stopped that tradition after we moved to South Carolina. I don’t have a particular reason why I stopped. I just never kept up with it.
I am thinking of getting the White House ornaments again. I’ve missed a few years of getting them, and so I have to catch up. Or perhaps I will just start with purchasing the 2021 ornament and go from there. We can always begin again, right?
This time of year is a great opportunity for me to re-center and focus on what matters most – family, love, friendship. I have so much to be thankful for, despite the ups and downs of 2020, and so I hope to always be mindful of the good.
Tell me about your holiday ornament traditions.
