Christmas Ornament as Dog Toy

Yesterday morning I spent some time taking down Christmas decorations which included taking ornaments off a small tree I have in my kitchen. I thought I had carefully put everything away but after lunch when I was washing dishes, I heard Emme playing with something. She was having such a good time, throwing something up in the air, pouncing on it, and pushing it under the table. I decided to check which toy she was playing with and found it was a NEW toy. One of my Christmas decorations, an embroidered snowflake, was being repurposed. It went from ornament to dog toy. I hated to destroy Emme's game, but I grabbed the ornament off the rug, flattened it out and put it away to let the dog spit dry. One less toy. Too sad.
