Ben and I had gone to pick out our tree this year with a slight lump in our throat. Money has been tight so we wanted to be realistic about what we would spend on a tree (that was pretty much useless after the 25). We both were thinking a 5 maybe 6 footer...that was pushin' it.
Rowyn picked it out this year.
All she had to do was look at daddy with those sparkling brown eyes of hers and say,"Daddy, I want this one." "Ok Rowyn, if that's the one." Ben answered as a shot him a look of "Seriously?" "What the heck," he says,"when I was little I wanted a big one too." So we brought home a beautiful 9 foot tree. It is perfect though.
Rowyn was a great help at decorating. She likes things to look "just so." Like her momma.
Reese on the other hand never even saw the tree come in the front door.
Ben's contribution to decorating the tree. But without him...we would have no star right?
