Humble decoration

The more the Christmas decorations get showy in our community, the more I feel a compulsion to buy illuminations.
The other day, I invited my friends and their kids to dinner. A 6 year-old boy asked me as soon as he found no Christmas tree in my house, "where is your tree?". I was going to get one after Christmas, of course the drastically discounted one, but it's too embarrassing to say, so I opened windows and led him to see the humble illumination at the entrance! It seemed to have made him proud of his own illumination which was far more gorgeous than mine ;)
