I could lie here in front of the Christmas tree and stare at it for hours on end. As a kid, I often did just that. These ornaments mean a lot to me, each representing some wonderful memory of my family and friends.

My mother's sock monkeys and princess tiaras and cupcakes mingle with my grandpa's Western gear, including a small cowboy hat, and a genuine leather stitched cowboy boot. Ornaments that my mom remembers putting on the tree in her own childhood sit next to the little toy shop that I've loved since I was six. Ballet slippers and nutcrackers hang close to mukluks and Cinderella carriages, all topped by tinsel, and glittering with dozens of lights.

This is what Christmas trees will always be for me: Love and nostalgia to warm the heart, and a hint of childhood magic.
