It's not easy being the tiniest tree on the lot. Every year I get overlooked, but this year is going to be different. This year, I have a three-step plan! First, I'm going to fill my two bald spots with green weeds. Second, I'm going to face best side forward. And third, I'm going to think positive thoughts. Now, I know it's not much of a plan but it's all I have. I can't beg a family to take me home. Trees can't talk to people. It freaks them out.
