To celebrate the purchase of my first house in Atlanta, GA where I live now!

We received this gift when we were initiated into the same sorority as our mom, whose mascot is an angel. We have a running joke that even though I am the baby of the family, it is rare to see baby pictures of me. So, having an ornament with a baby picture representing my first Christmas is always fun to hang on the tree!

It’s hard to believe that this paper ornament is still with us year after year. It has some wear and tear, but that’s why I love it. It’s fun to see my artwork from third grade.

One summer, my sisters and I made our own paper angel ornaments, complete with our individual photos. Each Christmas thereafter, we have a little friendly competition to see who could place their angel ornament on the top center of the tree, where everyone can see it the best. Each year I seem to win. 32
