My husband and I are both only children who had the privilege of putting the Star in the top of the tree when the tree was finished. Our first Christmas together was fraught.
The place kicker/tree topper always gets noticed but where are the kudos for the Dad lying uncomfortably underneath while the spouse judges it to be straight and then has to screw it into that flimsy metal base. It takes days for your hands to recover
Aw, this is sad! Time was he’d grab her around the glutes and give her a boost to high places! See their page header art – she’s getting an apple and he’s getting … a great deal.
Possibly, the most celebrated instance of a field goal kicker’s contribution to a win was in 1972 when Garo Yepremian was with the undefeated Miami Dolphins. Teammate Alex Karras asked him “What the hell are you celebrating?” and Yepremian replied “I keek a touchdown!”.
I put the (hand embroidered by me) angel on the top of the tree all the years I worked on his tree alone. The past few years he has been “helping me” and he has put it on the tree (afraid I will fall if I climb up – so he climbs up so I can worry about him).

Arlo, you have to admit it’s not the worst kind of challenge reserved for the man of the house.

Fun Christmas dinner game … have diners create a list of something that symbolizes Christmas. Guess what always comes out “on top”.
Also guess what’s second.

46 years into marriage to each other and my wife and I still pat each other on the butt, though we don’t get that kind of handsy in public.
