    The Box – Finale

     

    Chapter 6

    “Oh my God”

    I hear my daughter’s voice. It is filled with surprise.

    “I can’t believe you still have this!!!”

    In her hand she holds up an ornament. A cute little snowman. It was from her very first Christmas. On it is written Baby’s 1st Christmas. I bought it for Tina to celebrate the arrival of Angelica in our lives. There have been so many wonderful Christmas’s spent with our own little Angel. Even though she is now a grown woman, she will always be our little girl.

    The remaining treasures are removed from the box and hung on the tree. There are a few from Angie’s school days that have survived over the years and Tina still insists on putting them on the tree. Ang gets a little embarrassed by them, but Tina is insistent that they be displayed.

    I remember one year we had put up the tree and decorated it, hanging all of the “Angelica Kennard-Porter originals”. She was in high school and arrived home with a friend, only to discover her “creations” displayed front and centre. She was mortified, like any teenager would be and started to move them to the back of the tree where no one would see them. Until Tina arrived home from work and caught her.

    Angie couldn’t understand Tina’s need to have them on the tree each and every year, but she will one day. When she has her own children, she will understand.

    A couple of hours later we have finally finished decorating the tree. Other than the new snowflake ornament I picked up today, there is just one thing left to do. Place the Angel on the top of the tree. I see it sitting on the coffee table, walk over to pick it up and then hand it to Angelica.

    “Would you like to finish it off?”

    Her smile lights up the room as she takes the tree top from me and heads over to place it in its rightful place. I walk over behind Tina and place my arms around her waist pulling her back into me as we watch our daughter add the finishing touch. She climbs back down and walks over to turn out the lights in the house. Walking back over to the tree she kneels down and takes the switch in her hands.
