Oh that was so wonderful to read!!! Bless you both! On my first xmas with the kids, I had to do it all myself because my husband was still a JW and I was frantic! The neighbors around me found out I was doing my first xmas and they brought over little things from their collections to get us started, a little ceramic village, ornaments, a little "Charlie Brown" imitation tree to start with, and bells for my door....people are wonderful. A lady from online whom I had also never met, heard I was looking for a particular toy for my little girl and couldnt find it anywhere. She went and bought it personally and shipped it to me at great expense to herself. Honestly...I was so ashamed at having been a JW and treated "worldly" people with such hatred. Shame on me.

Mannnnnnnnnn, this thread just makes ya feel warm all over
Btw, about the tree? Real or not - manufacturers now make candles & potpourri which smell just like a Christmas tree. Honest!
I personally, would go for the fake tree with little lites already entwined so I didn't have to do that. Lowe's has great ones. Shut up, 'swa. I know it's a tad tacky....but then, so am I.

I had to call Jan in here to read about this wonderful story. It made us both feel so good. Now, iff anyone wants to buy candles for the holidays, don't forget our dear friend, Bill Bowen. He makes very high quality candles.
