This was probably the most difficult part of the Christmas season for him.And for her.Her mother had particularly loved their little tree-trimming ceremony. Just a year ago, the three of them had decorated the tree together. Andy Williams’s Christmas album had played in the background and the smell of popped corn had permeated the air.“It’s perfect,” Julie announced.Her father shrugged. “If you say so. I brought the decorations up from the basement.” He studied the tree, and Julie had the feeling that if she hadn’t made the effort this year, he’d be willing to forgo Christmas altogether.“Did you find the Christmas CDs?” she asked.“Nope.”Julie suspected he hadn’t looked. They were no doubt packed away with the decorations.“I think I’ll see how the Huskies are doing.” He picked up the remote. The University of Washington football team was her father’s favorite.“You aren’t going to help decorate?” Julie hated the thought of doing it all by herself, but she didn’t want to force her father to participate.
