Paul was feeling a little Nutty today.
This little REINDEER dates back to my Childhood in New Jersey. It was given to my brother in Boy Scouts. There was a lollipop attached. I remember being ever SO jealous . . . and I accidentally broke off his back leg. My cheeks still flush with embarrassment thinking of it. I place him on my tree each year for HUMILITY.
My brother made this Snowball Man in Boy Scouts. He is missing an eye and half of his smile, but I have no ill-feelings towards this one.
VERY LOUD VOICE
WHAT ARE YOU DOING???
And I replied in a wee voice
MAKING IT PRETTY!!!
I’m pretty sure that’s when my hand slipped in shock, creating that long line and the end of my artist career.
More Ornament History tomorrow?

Oh my...that's funny, but it probably wasn't at the time...
this is wee darling, deb. you've shared these wee memories through the wee eyes of the little girl you were (and still are) and you transported me, just like that, back to my own childhood, and back to that of my daughter's.
i have a not-so-wee warmth all over from this post.

I love the ornament story!!
Love and hugs.
Thank you for sharing girlfriend!! I'm still embarrassed to say that I'm not further along in the Xmas process but tomorrow is the day!! : )
Oh how I love hearing about your ornament history and by the behavior you exhibited as a child I can see why we are such delightfully dear friends ;-). But Deb, what happened to the lollipop?
Ok, now I'm off to do that thing ;-).
Happy Christmas thought are being sent your way.
Much love,
Cori
