When you’re two there’s no differentiation between real and fake.
We walked into Hobby Lobby after school today and Tanner exclaimed, “Look at those trees over der, mommy! God made them!”
After a short pause to ponder my response I replied, “Yes He did, Tanner!”
“They’s got lights in them! I wanna touch it!” Homegirl was pumped. She must not remember that we had one last year. So we shopped for 30 minutes, and the entire time she repeated excitedly, “Mommy, can we have a Christmas tree at our house?!?” “Sure, honey.” “God made those Christmas trees!”
Um…yeah. Completely mesmerized.
We went to “see the Christmas trees” 3 times while we were in the store, and she even stopped to pet them.
Looks like Christmas will be fun this year. ![]()
(And apparently God makes plastic trees.)

Yes, Tanner, God makes “dem” trees and anything that makes your eyes that bright. Sweet story, sweet girl. I miss my summer with the Moon team.
