Henry Winkler has an adorable way of honoring each of his grandchildren during the festive season by representing each of them with an ornament on his Christmas tree. The sitcom star is a proud grandfather of six— Ace, Jules, Gus, India, Lulu, and Francis Joan, from his three children, Jed, Zoe, and Max.
Henry Winkler made this revelation on Wednesday’s episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show, clarifying that his Christmas tree has no religious meaning since he is Jewish. He simply sets the Christmas tree up to celebrate his growing family every year.

Aside from the six Christmas tree ornaments already assigned to each of the grandchildren, Henry Winkler has another one saved for his grandkid on the way. The 79-year-old said the new addition to the family arrived in a few weeks, likely just in time for the festive holiday.
Henry Winkler says being a grandparent brings the same emotions as being a parent; however, it feels completely different. He noted that each of the kids has different personalities and must be dealt with accordingly. He added that the older ones know to stay quiet when the youngest, Francis Joan, is taking a nap.
