A Very Special Christmas Message, From Our Hive to Yours

Merry Christmas, girls and bees! It’s that special time of year when our thoughts turn to indulging in (or avoiding like the plague) egg nog and fruit cakes, snuggling in front the fireplace hung with stockings, exchanging gifts wrapped in bright paper, strolling down the street caroling, attending midnight mass, admiring the beautiful decorations, and doing it under the tree.

Yes, doing it under the tree!

According to an extremely scientific poll, 18% of iVillagers (last I checked) say they’ve done it under the Christmas tree, and they’ll do it again! And 22% say “Hmmm, haven't thought of that, but I will now!” Now THAT’S what I call some Christmas spirit!

Okay, every day when I get home, my Christmas tree has a whole lot of shed pine needles under it. To me, and this is just my opinion! – pine needles = ouchy. But maybe that just, ahem, adds to the thrill?

pauliesgirl77: “Nope, no need to try to fit under the tree to do that.”

msriede : “I want to but we just haven’t… I have no idea why I want to, though.”

amermae: “Hahahaha. I almost spit my coke out when I read this!! We have this tiny 3 foot fake Christmas tree and just imagining us trying to do ANYTHING under it has me cracking up. Too funny.”

I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus indeed!
