Last year our seven-year-old grandson gave us a beautiful ornate glass star that looks like crystals in a chandelier if you focus your eyes correctly. This year I asked Chris to hang it above the tree.
Beginning with the ruler, measuring meticulously in one direction and then the other, he proceeded to find a spot in the high raked ceiling for the hook.
Fighting to penetrate the hard wood, finally the hook was in place.
Climbing down the ladder, Chris heard his father’s voice in his head say, ‘Don’t worry sport, you can move the tree!’
This is exactly what he would have said.

Love it. That really made me chuckle. I think I’d definitely be in the find a soft spot for the hook and move the tree school of operations. 🙂

If only you could have seen the time and concentration prior to his enlightenment, Mary. It was wonderful!

Gerard, we both found it very funny after the performance of trying to find the right spot!

A great solution. Some would think it is cheating. Others might claim it is an ingenious solution.
