Venus and Mars Part II

The difference between girls and boys? Decorating the Christmas tree I gave each child a handful of tinsel and showed them both how to put it on. My daughter carefully and diligently pulls single strand by single strand out of her handful and carefully applies each evenly to the tree. My son takes two handfuls, throws it on the tree, stands back with his hands on his hips, admiring his work and says, "Perfect."

That's the kind of charm, though, that makes a tree so beautiful. Sometimes the holiday is really all about the children. Enjoy!

You are so right. I left it because he was so proud. So, the left side of the tree has evenly dispersed tinsel and the left looks not so orderly, but it's great. :)
