On the lighter side!

by Carol Meyer
Another Christmas has come and gone, and we'll be taking down our tree this weekend.
But I am sad!  We've kept it up for as long as we can but I feel like I will be parting with an old friend.  Our beautiful tree brightened holiday family gatherings, visits from friends, and cozy evenings by the fireplace reading a book. During a recent gathering, it became our birthday party tree.  Now it's time to say goodbye. The only comfort is that Christmas will be here again before we know it and another festively-decorated tree will grace our living room.
Does anyone else feel this way,  or am I just a bit crazzzyy?!
