and Happy holidays to everyone. We are at home now. Well, sort of. Still in boxes and the kitchen is partially complete...but we are sleeping in our own beds. This leak/home repair has turned out to be much harder than I anticipated...searching for that silver lining has been harder than usual with regard to all of this..
Last night we were going to attempt to sort through boxes to put up a christmas tree in the family room. Since it was filled with boxes already, Samantha suggested that we just make a tree out of boxes. Seriously...she is a genius! We made some ornaments, a paper chain and tonight we put on a set of lights. I do believe it is a lovely tree. One that I treasure. Our "make the best with what you've got" tree. love. love. love. And that's all that matters.

It is a beautiful tree. The story of its origins is a gift that I'm delighted you shared with us. You continue to inspire and amaze. Love, Lynne
That is a tree made of pure love!! I sense a "tree of boxes" tradition starting here. Glad your back in. Thinking of you all today and always.
Much Love,
