So, I walk into my friend Angela’s house for our monthly Bunko night and my friend Charlotte with her sassy, flaming red, perfectly quaffed hair is standing there with a gift that is clearly a Christmas Gift wrapped in a Long Triangular box.
“An unusual shape,” I thought.
She locked eyes with me, staring at me, daring me to ask,
“Who’s the present for Charlotte?”
“It’s for you”, she said,
I looked at her, questioning why
“I don’t ever want you to be without again,” she said, “Open it...Now”
Oh, I am loving this...
As I slowly open the gift my friends crowded around
and eagerly waited to hear me read the box outloud.
“It just needs a little Love,
It’s is a Charlie Brown Christmas Tree.”
I laughed so hard I had tears streaming down my face. I might have pee’d my pants a little. I ruined my mascara. It was all over my face.
And then Charlotte shared with everyone how it was a complete Sacrilege that I did not have a tree last Christmas.
Then I had to explain to the group that I HAD a tree, I just chose not to put it up..It was in the attic. I was doing a renovation in the living room. I was busy. We weren’t having Family Christmas at the house anyway. Why was it a big deal? Charlotte clearly felt very strongly about it and explained to me that it is my duty to put up a tree.
Anyway...”Now you’ll always have one, no matter how busy you are!”
I DO LOVE my Charlie Brown Christmas Tree!
I have my tree hanging in my Painting Studio. I have it right here on my desk as I blog today.
On this Day, and everyday, Charlotte,
your gift to me reminds me that
I will never be without.
Love Stacy
