A thoughtful mother has explained why her Christmas tree gets put back in it’s box on December 25.
Georgia Schofield revealed in a video, which has gone viral online, that she takes down all of her festive decorations at 11pm on Christmas Day.
The TikTok video showed Georgia removing the tree as soon as her daughter had gone to bed.
In the clip Georgia, who posts under the username @bruh.georgia explained: “When your daughter’s birthday is December 26. Time to get on with the birthday decorating.”
In a separate video, posted the following day, it showed the mum setting up a birthday buffet with banners, balloons and a cake for the tot.
Thousands of people took to social media to praise the mum for her “wonderful” efforts.
One person said: “I love this, think it’s really thoughtful that you bring Christmas celebrations to an end to celebrate her birthday.
Another commented: “This is so lovely that you are making your child’s birthday about her and not Christmas. I personally love it.”
Another joked: “Should keep tree decorate with birthday banners instead.”
Some parents related to the mum’s commitment and told how they also took down the Christmas decorations before their children’s December birthdays.
While others questioned the move, according to Mirror Online.
One person said: “Whyyyyyyyyy did you take the tree down? I would’ve loved for it to stay up.”
Another added: “I would want my birthday with the Christmas tree up.”
Following her video, Georgia addressed the queries in a later post.
She said: “If my birthday was the day after Christmas, I could think of nothing worse than having the tree up.
“That’s why I take it down just to try and make it as normal as possible for her.
“Christmas and then birthday the day after is too close so it’s just our own family tradition to take the tree down Christmas night ready for her birthday tomorrow.”
