"While browsing through an album of old photographs I came across a photo of my son, Adam on his dad’s shoulders and reaching to place the star on the Christmas tree. Those little moments in time are so precious and a child’s excitement while helping to decorate the tree and prepare for Santa’s arrival adds so much joy to the holidays. The anticipation and innocence of children are what makes Christmas such a special occasion. Adam will always be daddy’s little star. |  |
