let's do this

i've been fighting with christmas.
i love it, but i'm not ready for it this year.
not emotionally ready to get ready for it.
but christmas is coming.
christmas is coming because christ already came.
and i don't want to miss it.
so i finally turned on the christmas music
while emmie and i did this...
that's not my old mangy tree, by the way. it's gunga's tree.
and i love having it in my home.
it's the most wonderful time of the year, right?
so i called a truce.
and i feel much better.

What a beautiful, special Christmas tree. And an even more beautiful, special little girl!

Good. Please find some Christmas spirit for me too.

What a stunning tree! It was definitely worth surrendering to the Christmas spirit!

And Lulu! I don't know how anyone can see a picture of her and not burst into a smile.

Beautiful!! Prayers & hugs as you head into this "firt" without Gunga! The only improvement on Christmas at your house is the brown baby nativity I have for you!

Ah, I'm sure Gunga is smiling down on you and that beautiful tree!

And I'm smiling just seeing pictures of the tree in your home! It will be every bit as happy there as Dickens is, I'm sure! ILY.
