Well, Skyla asked me one night, "Mommy why do Christmas trees always have to be green?" I answered, "Well what color would YOU like them to be?" She said, "Pink! Because I like pink!" So I found one in the grocery store this weekend, while Brian had snuck away to purchase what Mrs. Santa had picked out for Skyla at the store next door, and I asked where the pink Christmas tree boxes were..... They told me they weren't getting anymore in, and the only one left was the display---and they aren't selling it. I told a saddened girl she couldn't have a pink Christmas tree after all, when SUDDENLY the Scottie grew a heart and told me we could have the display for FREE! We needed lights and a stand (unlike the tree would have had should we have purchase it in a box), but no worries! Daddy was back and willing to help solve our little problem. He saw two grinning girls and a squashed, pink Chrismas tree in the cart full of groceries, and made a face no one would be able to describe. We love him. He lets us have our crazy ways sometimes, and therefore.....HERE'S OUR TREE!!!!
