Oh, Christmas Tree.

Dear Christmas tree,

I'm sorry you're still naked over a week after we brought you home.  And that I forgot to water you for three days.  And that you'll be thrown away in less than a month. 

Thank you for still being so vibrantly green.  And thanks for your lovely aroma.  It makes me smile every morning. 

But please.  Please, please, please, stop dropping your needles on my floor.  Don't get me wrong, I probably understand hair loss better than any non-Rogaine testamonial giver.  Still, it's a little excessive.

Sincerely,
Your neglectful and borderline abusive(especially when you consider what I'm gonna do come January 1st) mother,
-Kelli

  1. Don't scold the poor tree for dropping needles when YOU forgot to water her....him....it....whatever! We had a real tree once. When we sold the place a year later, there were still needles embedded in the carpet. Auntie V
