I saved a little something special for my father today. It is a mere four days before Christmas and our decorating is not yet completed. Our tree has been up since November and, although it looks full and finished, there is still something missing. This ornament has been in the family for years and to watch my father hang it on the tree brings me a secret joy. It is like twisting a tiny bulb on a half lit strand of lights causing the whole strand to turn on, knowing that you were responsible for the new twinkling bright colors.
