Two weeks before Christmas, Lily and her brother Carmelo, who is 6 years old, witness their parents preparing for the holiday. Their father takes down a box labeled "Christmas things" from the attic, and their parents spend two days decorating the house, finishing with a 6-foot real Christmas tree. Meanwhile, Lily and Carmelo relax on the couch, watching Christmas movies and enjoying popcorn.

A key tradition is the family's annual trip to a Christmas tree farm in Woodstock, New Hampshire, where they cut down their real tree. Christmas preparations involve shopping, sending cards, and planning parties. Lily's mother, known for her cautious nature, has difficulty coming up with gift ideas for her children this year. She suggests the "4-gift rule" to simplify the process: one gift they want, one they need, one to do, and one to read. Her husband agrees, appreciating how the rule offers a balance of enjoyment and growth.

In addition, Lily's mother is intrigued by subscription boxes as a gift idea. These boxes, which cover a wide range of interests like art, cooking, and books, offer a fun, ongoing gift that reflects the child's interests and can be enjoyed throughout the year.
