"Do you think other people have Christmas trees, Lincoln?"

"I don't know. Not many in this neighborhood. And you know Mom works hard."

"I know."

Michael kneeled on the couch in front of the window, watching snow falling under the streetlights down below. "Maybe we could make a tree," he said quietly.

"Make?"

"Out of paper, or coat-hangers or something. You know."

Lincoln knew Michael, and it meant that Michael really, really wanted a tree. "Okay."

Crayons, construction paper and glue finally yielded something Michael approved of. "Here, on the wall. With the presents underneath."

"Good?"

Michael beamed. "It's perfect."
