Stupid Tree

So Stony Plain put up their huge Christmas tree on Main Street.  It's so cool to see, it's old fashioned in a comforting way.  But every year when they put up the tree it makes me think of a few years ago when I was teaching preschool in Stony.

We were taking the kids for a walk to see a "huge surprise" (the big tree).  So we're walking down the street with about 15  kids, and as the tree starts coming into sight we start asking the kids "Do you see anything yet?".  No one said anything until Luke finally pipes up with the funniest thing I had heard in ages, "How can I see anything with that stupid tree in the way?"

Priceless!
