In today's world you can buy a Christmas any color you can think of! When I was growing up you had green and if you wanted white then you flocked it. I can remember this one Christmas that Mama wanted a white tree, so what she did was she wet the tree and took flour and dusted it over the tree. It looked like it had been out in the snow. Back then the lights on the tree got really hot so they made foil reflectors to go behind them. It made the lights seem brighter and more colorful.
We had a lot of Charlie Brown type Christmas trees, without very much under them! The one thing that we always had was love. We knew how much Mama and Daddy loved us!! I hope that you let your family and friends know how much you care about them.
I have friends who read my blogs to keep up with what is happening with me and I want each of you to know that I love you and you are always in my thoughts and prayers.
Front Porch Stories is a place where I go to talk about things from current events to stories from my past. I hope you stop by and read a few.
