A Christmas Surprise
Yes... another Christmas decoration!
She loves me...
Cheerfully assembling the Christmas tree
branch by branch... each one artfully outstretched.
She loves me not...
Languorous carols wafting in the air.
She loves me...
Aussie, Colin Buchanan's "Merry Merry Christmas" pumpin'
Has me jumpin'!
She loves me not...
Tediously winding twinkling fairy lights in a downward spiral.
She loves me...
Another upbeat song by Colin... "Glory to God in the Highest".
She loves me not...
Tangled, tinsel tries to overwhelm the tree..
She loves me...
10 wooden decorations: angels; Love; Joy; Peace; Light and Wonder.
She loves me not...
Time worn Sunday School crafted pom pom 'Wise Men'...
minus their tiny placards: "Jesus is born! Christ is King! Joy to the World!"
She loves me...
7 shining baubles... twirling pristinely on tips of branches.
She loves me not...
3 unravelling, curly haired, angels with bodies made of ribbon.
She loves me...
Red and white bows; pipe cleaner bells; miniature, wooden nativity scene.
She loves me not...
What do you mean... we've run out of room?
... like Bethlehem, the night of Jesus' birth!
There's still the china mouse; candles and paint splotched pine cone to go!
She loves me..
Ah... one golden, star graces the pinnacle of the tree.
She loves me not...
What's that, lurking around the back, on the red mat?
Of course, it's Mia... our cheeky cat!
