Just another reason why living in this house of ours is so hard…no place for a Christmas tree! For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted a house that would hold the biggest Christmas tree eva, but instead our house can only hold the smallest Christmas tree eva! That makes this Christmas tree loving momma so sad. While our oldest kept asking us when we were going to cut down our tree I had to explain to him that we had no room for a tree. It just broke my heart. Wanting and needing something, we decided to cut down a Christmas branch.
So after lunch we bundled up and headed outside to cut down our Christmas branch that Daddy ever so cleverly “planted.”
Our son spotted it first. The most perfect Christmas branch for us to “cut down.”
After “cutting down” our branch we enjoyed some time outside with the kiddo’s.
The baby just loved it! I wasn’t sure how she was going to be her first time in a sled with brother pulling her. But there were lots of smiles from her and brother was so sweet and gentle with her.
And of course one of these was bound to happen!
We even managed to get a picture of the whole family.
While the two youngest were sleeping, we decorated our Christmas branch. I was still feeling a little bummed about our lack of big Christmas tree until…my little girl woke up and proceeded to squeal in delight with the branch that was twinkling. Oh, she just Melted MY HEART!
So I’m over it! It’s not about the biggest tree, and thanks to my little ones for making me realize that. That still doesn’t mean that one of Christmas wishes will be for our house to be finished and for a big tree next year!
that was such a heartwarming post, thank you so much for sharing!!! Love the tree, and love the picture of your children getting excited over it!
Just like Emmett Otter! I love it!

Wonderful story. I hear you, I love big Christmas trees…and I have one….but, then I feel guilty about whether it is the right eco thing to do. You can't win. Hold onto those magical little moments. Merry, merry.
