I take my tree down at 6pm on Christmas Day – trolls are so cruel about it but they have no idea about the reason why
Many of us put a lot of effort into putting out our Christmas trees and decorating our homes each festvie season.
For that reason a lot of us want to keep our decorations up as long as we can, not touching them until at least the beginning of January.
But one mum has revealed she takes her tree down at 6pm every Christmas day.
Georgia is 24-year-old, mum of two from Hartlepool, Durham.
Georgia said: “When your daughter’s birthday is December 26.”
She said: “Time to get on with the birthday decorating.”
The mom of two shared an 18-second timelapse video on TikTok.
She is seen dismantling the tree before decorating the room again with balloons and birthday presents.
In the comments, she added: “If my birthday was the day after Christmas I can think of nothing worse than having the tree up so that’s why I take it down.
She said: “I try and make it as normal as possible for her.
Georgia said: “It’s our own little family tradition to take the tree down on Christmas night ready for her birthday tomorrow.”
One commenter jokes: “Couldn’t think of anything worse than taking my tree down stuffed after my dinner.”
Another commenter said: “My sister’s birthday is the 23rd. We keep Christmas stuff up and just do their birthdays that day.”
Many viewers thought it was a lovely gesture.
One commenter said: “I love this,’ a fifth gushed. ‘I think it’s really thoughtful that you bring Christmas celebrations to an end to celebrate her birthday’.”
Another commenter said: “Well done your such a good mum hope you all had a great day xx.”
Georgia also shared a follow up video of her redecorating her sitting room for her daughters birthday.
She adds bunting and balloons and lots of wrapped presents.
She even takes her decorating in the kitchen with a ful birth party setup.
One commenter said: “So did she get presents on Christmas day and birthday.”
Another commenter said: “What an absolutely amazing mummy! You’re perfect.”
