Every year I buy a new Christmas ornament and make my husband unwrap it when we open our presents and say it's from "The Ornament Fairy." Here are some of them.
Here's are some I considered this year.
Custom message ornament: Maybe "This Year Sucked." Or "I Cried A Lot." Or "My Mom Died and I'm Doing Just Fine with That." What about "My Relationship with My Sister is Complicated." It was a consideration.
Or maybe this?
Or, hey, what about this?
Okay, fine. I didn't do that. Enough with my pity party.
Serious consideration was these cute snowmen. It seemed even more appropriate after our snowstorm a couple of weekends ago.
A Subaru ornament to celebrate our new purchase? That seemed like recency bias.
I desperately want this custom book ornament. But that would really be about me and not the two of us, so that's a big no, but next year I'm going to seriously consider this as a present to myself. Pick out my top ten books of the year and put them in there. It's a perfect ornament for an occasion that isn't me acting as The Ornament Fairy.
In the end, I went for a fairly safe choice.
