The year before my second daughter was born, the number 3 was an unplanned theme for Christmas. I bought some cute cards that said, "From the three of us" and I purchased this ornament (image below) because it had three riding on a sled. I probably thought I was accepting our family as a three some (and no more). My daughter was almost 7 years old. We wanted more children; but, we were so happy and grateful to have our little girl.
A few months later, with a little fertility help, we were delighted to learn that we'd be a family of four. Every year when I dig out this ornament it reminds me, both of the time when we were a family of three, and that you never know what blessing is waiting for you just around the corner.

Every year I take pictures of my newest ornaments. I've used the pictures as accents and as focal points in many of my Christmas layouts. Here is a page I created that included the photo above:
