Soooo tomorrow is the first of December which means we start our count down to Christmas. 
For some of us tomorrow is the day we start to decorate , others have done it before now and some may wait until later in December (I know my mum does ) 

so let’s see those Christmas trees and decorations ~ these are the ones I have in my room 

Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    Please do not laugh at me. I made this decoration when I was 2 years old. It is sooooo cute but a bit embarrassing.   



    I was either 2 or 3 years old- forgot which age but I was in nursery at the time (started at 2 years old.)

They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be.

    Does anyone know how to put this stand up? Can't remember how I did it last year and how they slot in and I'm getting my hair off.

    Put the tree up yesterday. Featuring the Christmas cat as well (joking- it is just the tail made out of tinsel.) The coloured out thing on the tree photo is my family photos (didn't want to be identified.) I decorated the tree all by myself  (but my sister put on the lights.)

    We’ve been decorating today ! My favourite part is the lights wrapped around the banister.
