Picking up the pieces again *SU Trigger*

[Mira]

I am loving it. Spending this kind of time with your daughter is priceless. And it sounds like it was a great deal of fun. I would put the decorations up in June if its this much fun.

Seeing how it helped you and made a good connection with your daughter makes it worth while.

I do hope that the grumpyness will fade soon.

That’s brilliant! And I completely agree with you - whatever makes you and your daughter happy is totally worth it!

Woohoo!!!! Go you!!!! Now I feel that I might need to dust off the special Christmas part of the forum.....

SMum that made smile good on you and your daughter, it's been a long while since I decorated my house for Christmas as a kid we had a tree made out of a chimney sweep's brush we knew how to live in the 1950's

You don't get a Christmas tree or have sparkly fairy lights Mike?

[Mira]

I remember my mum telling me that growing up they had propper candles in the tree. I know its dangerous. But it must have been such a gorgous sight. Normaly I decorate the house. But I might pass this year.

Do you have any decorations around the house Mike? Maybe something traditional from germany that uses candles to move something? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_pyramidhttp://

Just saw that the link was not correct.

It's beautiful Mira. I have one of these which is a nativity scene. We got it at a German Christmas market so that figures. I love watching it spin.

Those are beautiful!
