I'm so happy that you're one of the gentle souls of life! We're the ones who keep the world "pretty" and "lovely"! Right now, your hubby doesn't realize it, but if you weren't there to keep his life sweet and gentle (including those nice, warm meals, cozy cuddles, etc), he'd be going out of his mind!!

Can't hug too much! Granted, I don't like live trees, but that's because of allergies. Does he have mildew or mold allergies? If not, ask him about the wonderful scent of pine that comes with the tree - doesn't that smell nice with the smell of cookies baking? Does that bring happy memories to him? What did his family do for Christmas?

Now, keeping that all in mind, you remind him that since it's YOUR family coming over for the holidays, you ALL will celebrate in a way that YOUR family finds appropriate! If he wants to opt out of the tree, tell him that he doesn't have to look at it.

Thank heavens that there's room in this world for those who can get lost in a book or a movie and create pleasure for others!!!
