On the Tree and Throughout the House

We don't really collect nutcrackers, but we seem to have amassed a number of them throughout the house. Kids are so drawn to them, aren't they? Both a bit human and a bit imagination.

And if they are "working" nutcrackers, beware of fingers. We have a six year-old loose in the house who will attempt to crack yours in the big red fellow's mouth if you aren't on your guard.

  1. I have a nutcracher Christmas tree ornament that was given to me years ago, when I was in our high school show choir. I love seeing it every year when we put up the tree, as it gives me a chance to remember those fun long-ago days!

  2. As the children grow older, I expect all of you will smile each Christmas when you pull out the nutcrackers simply because of the fun memories associated with them...
