Thanks Gillena. My tree is very small, not like the photo, which was from a few years ago. The silver stars behind the lights were from my childhood,

Thank you, Doug. You can't see them, but somewhere in that tree are a few ornaments made by the children.

The old ones are the best.
Little by little, my son is gathering more from our collection. Others have broken over time. The grand daughters will remember a good number.

So nice to hear from you. Sadly, my collection gets smaller each year: breakage and loss to mice that ate through the boxes in the attic and made a nest.

Happy New Year

Adelaide
