This special crane is the newest ornament on our tree. My brother brought his friend, Phoebe, home with him for Christmas this year, and she’s teaching us how to make these beautiful cranes, out of origami paper. I think it’s important to always add new ornaments to the tree, and new traditions to your holiday schedule, often. It keeps the holiday from becoming stagnant and reminds you that other people celebrate holidays, around the world, in different ways. One of my most enjoyable Christmases was when my parents took my brother, and I, to France, Switzerland, and Spain for Christmas. Presents were not a priority, the chocolate and treats were the most delicious I had ever tasted, and the new traditions we experienced will stay in my memory forever.
Did you ever travel to another country at Christmas?
