    The Box – Finale

    “Are you ready?” She asks?

    Tina is so excited…..she is just like a little girl the way her face is lit up in anticipation.

    Angie begins her count down

    “Ten, nine, eight”

    “Oh would you just get on with it….” Tina is growing impatient.

    Angie continues her countdown………“seven, six, five….”

    I now join in the countdown with our daughter…..

    “four, three, two……one…” and Angie flips the switch, lighting the tree.

    It is spectacular, if I do say so myself. There are hundreds of little white lights and they make the whole room glow. Angie comes over to where we are standing and hugs us both. As I continue to hold Tina she wraps her arms around Angie in the same manner.

    I can’t help but think to myself as I hold the two most special people in my life that I have everything I have ever wanted right here in my arms.

    There have been many years where we have held tree trimming parties and had our friends join us in the task, but I am most thankful for the years when it has been just the three of us…..like tonight. These are very special memories for me and have replaced all of the not so great ones I had before these two “angels” graced my life.

    Tina looks back at me and asks…..”Isn’t it beautiful?”

    I decide now is the time to have some fun. I respond with a serious voice by saying “It’s OK………..but it ……well………… it is missing something, but I just can’t put my finger on what it is.”

    Angie picks up on my “game” and plays along. “Yeah, you know Mom I think Mama B is correct. There is just something…………. something that isn’t quite right.”

    I release my grip from Tina and walk back towards the bedroom. When I return I see Tina carefully inspecting the tree, trying to determine what could possibly be missing. The tree is amazing and truly is not missing a thing.

    I chuckle to myself as I watch her from a distance and Angie smiles at me when she sees that I have retrieved the parcel containing Tina’s surprise.

    Tina is standing with her hands on her hips….a clear sign that she is becoming frustrated.
