There are four silver stars getting progressively lower down, and for each week angel and baby hover below the star. On XMas day, angel is quite low, and baby is on the earth (our nature table window sill) surrounded by our collection of wooden animals. Will try to take a picture and post it...the explanation sounds complicated and really it's so simple. Designed when my first was tiny and broad brushstrokes were better than a daily update!<BR/>And I finally added your link to my Favorite Stops on my blog, since I am now a dedicated reader. Kept meaning to do it!<BR/>Thanks!<BR/>IrisIris E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17997095122571368440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461709881987109797.post-36596265282158621102008-11-30T17:46:00.000+13:002008-11-30T17:46:00.000+13:00This advent tree with fantails is like walking in ...This advent tree with fantails is like walking in the bush in the summer- all the fantails with their flit-flit-flitting all around you as you walk. <BR/><BR/>I can scarcely bear to tell you about our advent calender...from the warehouse...with chocolate under every window. No philosphy, no re-use, a plastic wrapper that will be thrown away. Oh the shame of it, the shame of it (gnashing of teeth, wailing, tearing-out-of-hair with remorse).<BR/><BR/>They're fun tho.Miss Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08158920603801038622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461709881987109797.post-39795836404459554212008-11-30T17:14:00.000+13:002008-11-30T17:14:00.000+13:00Marynana I really like this advent tree.

Kind of like in installments?? Just a suggestions but I found myself thinking about your article and was inspired to read it in bits so as to ponder on. Also Miri if you are reading this at anytime could you let me know if the parcel arrived or not.
