Knock, Knock, Londie.

     Are you ready to go tree shopping?

Already? Let me just wrestle the rascal into some pants again… I’ll just be a moment.

     I have to say… I’m actually excited.

Does Jim-bow ever wear any pants? That kid is funny…

     And knowing us, I think that this year is going to be the first year where Christmas tree shopping won’t actually be boring as heck.

You should wear that scarf and jacket more often. You look all fancy.

Hey London, did you have a fun drive home? You know, in that new car…?

     But, I just wanted to say thank you before you went to bed. I know that today just seemed like a normal, any-day day but I saw my mom smiling, actually smiling. And it wasn’t one of those fake ones that I had seen for the past few months.

     I don’t know exactly what it was. Maybe it was keeping you and me from killing each other. Or maybe it was taking care of your brother and sister. But whatever changed today, I’m glad for it. So, my mom wanted me to tell you that you and your brother and sister are always welcome at my house.

     On another note, can I borrow your Physic’s homework? This huge packet could seriously kill someone with one look.

Seriously, it was horrible driving home with my little brother and sister… more so Jimmy’s fault though. The brat wouldn’t stop touching all of the buttons he could reach!

     Other than that though, Anth… I don’t know why but today really was one of the best days I have had in a long time. I don’t even remember a Christmas where our family ever even had a tree. So, I’m glad that I could finally experience that.

     And I’m even more glad that you were there to make it even more fun.

Anthony! I’m trying to sleep! I’m exhausted!!

     How about, instead of copying my homework, we do it together. That way I’m not overwhelmed with these twenty pages of electrical circuit board rewiring problems and roller coaster problems.
