Journaling Reads:

Little Nathaniel,
this is your first Christmas.
In our house, Christmastime is special.
We try to spend a lot of extra family time together and
do lots of activities.
One of those is to get and decorate our tree.
For many years, all I had was fake trees.
Two years ago, we got our first real tree and I was hooked immediately.
The delicious smell of that fresh pine makes me happy every single moment it’s in our house. This year, for the first time, we decided not to just get a tree but to cut our own tree.
We went to a local tree farm, spent a long time picking just the right tree even though it was raining.
Once we found our tree,
Daddy did all the work while
we watched and took some photos. Getting the huge tree on the car and into the house was yet another challenge.
But Daddy managed it all and we got to have a wonderful tree for your very first Christmas.
I hope we have many more
just like this one.
