Anne's Tradition: Moms Christmas Magic

A Box of Christmas Memories

Anne’s childhood Christmases were shaped by a tradition her mom quietly nurtured from the moment each child was born: every year, she chose a single, meaningful ornament just for them. By December, these small treasures became a box of memories - tiny time capsules that reflected each stage of their lives.

Opening the box each year was a moment of pure magic, choosing favourites, hanging them on the tree (and yes, sometimes fighting for the best branches), and discovering the new ornament chosen just for that year.

Passing the Magic Forward

When Anne and her siblings grew up and moved into homes of their own, their mom passed on those boxes - decades of memories ready to fill new spaces. Now, Anne has continued the same tradition with her stepson and son, choosing one ornament each year, building their collections one story at a time. It’s a simple ritual, but one that carries a lifetime of meaning and warmth.
