Last Sunday evening, mission accomplished. The trees are up and the crib are set. Now, I need to acknowledged that the mission is done with effort from both of my girl and my dear husband. Decorating Christmas is a huge mission and it must be done in sequence of steps. I bet you knew it! But this process will be much more meaningful when we did it as a family. Now you read the following conversations.
Annabelle said: "Mummy, you spread out the trees branches, while I go and help Papa with the crib!"
Annabelle asked Abigail: "Mei Mei, do you know which one is Mother Mary?" while they tried to lay out all the characters of the Nativity set on the coffee table.
Annabelle told : " Mummy, can you please go. We can do the decorations!". While she put the decorations, she said this to mummy.
Abigail said: "Mummy, I want to put the stars." Annabelle said : "Abigail ma, we put together ok!"
Papa said: "Go take shower, we pray before putting the star. OK?" . The girl nodded.
Right! These are our little conversations while putting up the Christmas tree. We pray together before putting the stars on top of the Christmas tree... I personally find this is very meaningful and lovely. What say you?
