Would you believe a stuffed pink unicorn named Darla?
It's true, and there's a story behind it. When my youngest son was about 3 years old, he received in a Happy Meal the above mentioned toy. For some reason he was completely taken with it, and he carried Darla everywhere.
When Christmas approached, Darla was added to our tree. I've allowed my kids the honor of decorating for the past 20 years, and I've had an odd assortment of trees in that time. They have been decorated with Beanie Babies, construction paper ornaments, decorations from school and anything else my children deemed worthy. When Martin was three, Darla became the most worthy of them all.
For 9 years that little unicorn has graced the top of my tree, and will do so until the day I die. She represents the simple beauty that is the world of children, and she stirs in me memories of years long passed.

A star or an angel. We have been using the star for quite awhile now. I think that's our preferred tree topper.
God bless you.
