Whatever else be lost among the years,
Let us keep Christmas still a shining thing;
Whatever doubts assail us, or what fears,
Let us hold close one day, remembering
Its poignant meaning for the hearts of men.
Let us get back our childlike faith again.

Your shots remind me of when my kids were just toddlers...how new Christmas was to them...how exciting!
They're all grown up now and just yesterday we trimmed our tree together...still a great time together!

Terrific thought and terrific shots - I'm sure enjoying your recent postings that translate what we often don't notice into the special things they are.

This is the first Christmas for the little one, and luckily he's just old enough to participate a bit (and be thrilled with the first 'light test' )

My oldest has instructed him to "Be gentle!" with the ornaments, no doubt remembering multiple bulb incidents from last year involving him.
