Day Four

Ah Christmas, it is time for you to be put away.  The Christmas tree comes down, the wreath off the door, ornaments packed & put up in the attic, and a big big mess swept up.  What do I like about this picture?

The dirt that we track in being swept up?  No.  (Although, I do like a good clean floor!)

The Scottish Pine needles from our big Christmas tree that fall to the floor every time you just look at the tree?  No.

It's the glitter.  Do you see it?

That's just glitter from one ornament that fell off the tree...and I have looooots of ornaments with glitter on them.  My husband hates glitter.  Every year at Christmas time we have roughly the same conversation as I unpack & set out Christmas decorations:

Him:  Ugh.
Me:  What?
Him:  Glitter.
Me:  I know!  Isn't it magical?!
Him:  Nope.  It sticks to everything & you find it the rest of the year.
Me:  It covers everything with glittery goodness!!

But he's a good sport & let's me decorate with all my glittery Christmas things every year!  Now back to sweeping up more glitter....
