Last Christmas my husband started a tradition with his son.  It was their first Christmas after my husband's divorce and he wanted to do something special with his son.  He purchased a tabletop fiber optic tree and clear glass ornaments.  Then one evening they spent painting the ornaments for the tree.  This year I wanted them to keep the tradition going so we bought more glass ornaments and I got to join in the fun painting them to join the others on our tree!  Its amazing how something so simple can turn out to be the most special times we spend with our families and friends.
