Occasionally my wife will save a special edition of Ellen on the DVR for me if it contains a musical artist or actor that I might have an interest in. This particular episode she saved for me had John Mayer, whom I admire for his quirky sense of humor and guitar skills. What Kate did not expect to grab my attention was the undeniable awesomeness of his sweater that he was wearing to celebrate the winter season.
I told Kate that if she got me nothing else for Christmas this sweater was what I had to have! Immediately there where visions of a holiday tradition taking shape for the fist time. I could see Ella in her 30's dreading to come home for Christmas in fear that her boyfriend, she will have just started dating, would witness her father coming down the stairs in a raggedy old sweater that screamed "IT'S CHRISTMAS".......as it has for the last 29 years!!!
My visions would be come reality as I peeled back the paper on Christmas eve, the holidays will never be the same!
Thank you John Mayer and despite your regret for saving this episode, I thank my wife for bringing me this joy!
