This decoration is very special to me because after my father passed away when I was eleven, my mother decided that we celebrate a new tradition – buying a new ornament together each Christmas, just the two of us. I remember the first time we were both browsing the shopping aisles together and wanted something to represent our mutual love for music, but this was the only ornament that went with “”music”” so we ended up getting the same one. My mother ended up passing away when I was 17, but every Christmas I continue the tradition with her in mind, next to my side.
