Handmade With Love My favorites are the ones my boys made when they were in elementary school. Thye have great sentimental value (and are not too bad looking either! ).

One is a cottage cheese lid with dyed macaroni. It is a picture of The Madonna & Child. It hangs from a loop of red ribbon.

The other one is a tuna fish can lid with a picture of The Nativity glued and varnished to it. It has a hole punched through it and hangs by a green ribbon. Fun memories of Christmases Past!.

Yep. It's a little pink and blue plastic horn that makes a little toot sound We always blew it before doing gifts on Christmas Eve when I was a kid. My Mom got it for her first Christmas in 1924 and it has been on a Christmas tree every year since.

We still blow it before gifts, although my Family does them on Christmas morning. Cheap, probably was about a dime then or maybe less. It wouldn't be more than a buck or two today, but I treasure it Sources: me .

Well, I have one of those objects as a favorite Christmas ornament. It's one of those old fashion decorations that they made back in the late 1930s.It's rather large, green, and shaped like a pine tree. It was given to me by my grandmother, so it has some sentimental value attached to it.

Personally, I like it, even though it is a bit gawdy. Anyway, every year during December, my wife and I have the same discussion. She says it doesn't match with the rest of the ornaments on the tree.

Just for your information, my wife happens to be one of those people where everything has to match. Enough said? So, we stand there and politely argue with each other for ten minutes, and then my wife eventually yields.

However, after Christmas is over, it's the first ornament she goes for to box for the next year. Sources: personal opinion .

My Askville ornaments I love all of my ornaments. The prettiest are the White House Ornaments that I get every year. The most sentimental are the ones celebrating each Christmas for my kids.

Still, the ones that make me smile every time are my Askville Ornaments. What are my Askville Ornaments? Well, I'll tell you.

A couple of years ago, when I was on here most hours of the day, I developed some truly wonderful friendships with people I knew I might never meet, but whose impact on my life could not have been more wonderful. These were the days when we kept a running party board until the servers couldn't handle the posts. Then we would post a new question for a new party.It was our own little version of family and community.

A place to escape the nonsense, bond with people, make memories. It was also a time when my personal life was very difficult. I didn't post here about it.

I didn't ask questions about it. I just came here to spend time with people who made me smile and reminded me that joy was so much more powerful than sadness. These were the people who shared their lives, their wisdom, their joys, their sorrows, their humor and everything else with each other.

Each day, I escaped real life to a place populated by people who let me forget to be sad. As Christmas approached, the usual pressue built up quickly. I knew it would overwhelm me if I didn't find some way to find some joy in the season.

It didn't take long to figure out how. I decided to create a little part of Christmas that would commemorate and show appreciation for the people who brought laughter and love to my days. I started shopping for ornaments to represent each of my Askville friends.

I had a small tree and each day I added new ornaments that were strictly representative of the people who had shown me that you don't have to meet face to face in order to make real and lasting friendships. I started with the party boards. There was a Stewie for VacationBoy, chick for MightyMite, Bunny for Autumn.

I added a Winnie the Pooh for Rickisgirl, a Betty Boop on a motorcycle for Lyn, a kaleidescope for Marissa. Then I spread out. I made a fly fishing fly for EdFoug, found a victorian little girl for Poppet.

I had a black cat for Persnicula and a wolf for LadyWolf. I even found a silly giraffe for Cak. I just kept adding to it and have continued to either buy or make ornaments to represent my Askville friends since then.

I now hang them all on my tree. I've added so many. I have a pair of glasses with tape around the middle, a cat with a santa hat that looks like it's typing, a drunken sailor, a muppet with crazy orange hair, a lime, a Sylvester the cat, a yellow lab pup, a coffe mug and many, many more.

I hang them on my tree and I smile. I pack them in the specially labeled Askville Ornaments box and smile. I pull them out the next year and I smile.

I'm so grateful for the people who I've met here. That kind of gratitude should always be a big part of Christmas. Each year, those ornaments remind me to practice gratitude.

I hope I never forget it and I hope I just keep finding more ornaments to represent the most wonderful people in the world.

What I Did on My Christmas Holidays" Sally Sparrow.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
