Last year this time, i checked off an item from my bucket list. “Setting up a Christmas tree with my mom”. Actually my dad and mom were excited too, decorating the tree. I always love the sparkles and colors the tree show off.
Setting up the tree took some time as I had to fix all the branches, stem to the base. I set a four-feet tree and put on colorful baubles, stars, Santa Claus, reindeer and ribbons. I had loads of ornaments. Thanks to Amazon for stocking up different decorative stuffs. Finally I lit up the tree to make more appealing. I was proud of the output.
This year, I planned to set up the tree. Guess who helped me. Yes!! My 17 months old baby girl was my lil cute elf who joined hands to the task. She was happy I let her play with the ornaments. She pulled out each bell from the storage box and held out to me. I hung the bells to the tree and asked her for the other. I was awestruck that she was patient enough to do the job. Once done, she went on to do her usual veshamams around the house. Surprisingly she didn’t come near the tree thereafter. Touch wood!
Let see how long my tree glitters! Thank you my little elf!
