The Moment you Realize...

Today, i realized something.

.

I suppose in some ways, i've known this before. But it's never fully gobsmacked me in the face!!

.

DaddyO came home with these....

.

My father is an ecstatic (to say the least) lover of Christmas. Each year, he would build a beautiful Christmas village (that sometimes lasted for the better part of a year); Complete with a train, steeples, mountains---You name it! It was his 'thing'.

.

I never expected DaddyO to bring these home.

.

Did not see it coming at all.

.

.

DaddyO's eyes glowed with that same holiday joy that was in my father's eyes all those years. I guess i never fully realized his desire for creating his own village?

.

They say, women tend to marry a guy like their dad...

.

.

~~ only a few houses required.
