The other day my 10-year-old granddaughter came into the
house all excited. “Come and look at the
Christmas tree that I cut for you and Papa,” she said. “ I picked it out special for you and cut it
all by myself and dragged it home - just for you! Isn't it beautiful!” She
was just beaming with pride and love.
“It’s a perfect
little tree! We love it!” we both
said. The happy look on this sweet
child’s face truly made this little tree something very special.
We have had “Charlie Brown Christmas Trees” at our house
ever since our boys were old enough to go with their dad to cut a tree from our
woods. The tradition has continued with
our grandchildren. We are a close
family and very fortunate to have both our sons live near by. This little Christmas tree might not have
many branches and it may be a little sparse, but the love that radiates from it
fills our house with joy.
Merry Christmas to you all – from our house to yours.
