A Special Tree

***** update on Mama: She is improving, but far from well, and has been transferred to a rehabilitation/nursing center. Our hope is that she will be able to go home in a few weeks. She was very, very sick last week. I honestly did not think she would make it for a little while there! Thank you so much to all who were concerned for her and me.

I haven't had time to or the desire to do much Christmas decorating this year. My daughter, who is always so thoughtful, brought me this pre-lit tree, fully decorated. She knows I love snow, so the tree is decorated with a snow theme and even has a snow tree skirt. She, my son-in-law and grandson snook the tree in and surprised me.





I love this tree and..... my daughter!

I know how worrying it can be to have an elderly and sick parent as I've been dealing with this for years. We almost lost her so many times but she is right now doing better than she has in a long while. I pray the same for your mother. Your mother obviously raised a good daughter and you have too as she is very thoughtful toward you. God bless you all as you go through this Christmas season.

It is a beautiful tree. Your daughter is a sweet thoughtful daughter. The same as her mother. I'm glad that your mom is doing better.

You have a beautiful tree.
How sweet of them to do this for you during your difficult time. I have been through this myself, and can relate to the roller coaster of trials and emotions. May the God of peace be with you all.

How sweet of your daughter and son-in-law to take such good care of you! :)

hope you have a good week.

Your daughter is so sweet. What a sweet surprise for you! I'm glad your mom is doing better; I can only imagine the ups and downs you all have been through... very physically and emotionally draining. ((hugs)) to you all!
