Gives me ideas for my own children's ornaments when they start coming home from school. lol Here I thought we were being smart by buying them an ornament each year that they will be able to take with them when they are grown up, but at least now I know how I'll replace all those ornaments I'll lose!Alannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09648851956335759509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849506599116665235.post-82212121097700932642010-12-08T05:23:18.272-06:002010-12-08T05:23:18.272-06:00Amy, thanks for the laugh!

I am so with your parents on this. You don't actually have to put them on the tree, just keep them in the family archive hermetically sealed. Right now I have a cardboard cone from my son's preschool that was a rocket (He told me so.), something with Cheerios, and a construction paper pumpkin complete with actual pumpkin seeds AND glitter. My only read concern is not attracting rodents. Of course my son's only eight.
