Christmas Tree Decorating

We were all excited about getting our tree and eventually decorating it, even there was some initial resistance to the idea at first, but I won’t get into that. We prevailed, and got our tree and set it up. Once it was on the stand, I figured we had plenty of time to decorate it, and there was no hurry. A&N, however, had different ideas.

They wanted to surprise mom with the decorations, but we were pressed for time. We had so many engagements that there was little time to get it done without her being here, but to their credit, they found a way. They had about an hour one evening before mom got home, so they just went for it. They worked diligently, and it was cute to see how industrious they were. For the record, I just want to mention that I did nothing. They did all of the work, even putting the angel on the top of the tree. It was pretty impressive, and they had fun while we listened to Christmas songs. It’s times like these that you really love the holidays, and best of all, they were able to surprise mom.

Until the next time, thanks for reading.
