Many years ago (when I was REALLY little), my mom bought a little ornament set from a 99cent store. In the set was a little ballet girl with a lacie tutu. My mom fell in love with it and every year would say "this little ornament is my favorite" as she would hang it on her tree. Many years later this little ornament is the last of the set and she treats it so well.
Again... to some this story might seem a little cheesy to be one of my favorite "mom memories", but it is. I love that something so small is her favorite on her very large tree every year. There is such a great message behind it. That we should take joy in the small things and remember to not look past the "little things" that make us happy in life.
Thanks mom for sharing this story and being such a great example!
I love you!
PS. I used the new Christmas collection from Cosmo Cricket on this layout
