I'm afraid that you, now, are changing a famous saying, especially among photographers (and their excuse that they can't do well with words)... A photo is worth a thousand words. I think that in your case you are demonstrating that your words, which you say you have only them (but this is just an alignment that you don't believe either) is worth a thousand photos! The interesting part here is that even your photos are worth a thousand words and, after all, it's hard to calculate how extensive your blogs are!
Decorating the house for Christmas is a pleasure and a joy, I'm glad for your joy and your childlike soul!
Oh, no! I never even thought of it that way! But. of course, you are right. I wrote that when I tried to demonstrate how I came about my words, but, now I see that it is not saying that, perhaps only to me. :)
You are right, decorating for Christmas is a real joy! I really enjoy it. This year will be a fun year as your granddaughter is old enough to enjoy the fun. That will make your soul young again. :)
Have a great day, Dan! @bluemoon
