There is a story behind the safety cone. If you have been following my blog, you know that her high school boyfriend and his bed friend died in a car accident, the night before her graduation party.
Prior to that happening, she hosted a surprise birthday party for him at our house. They never woke us up in the night, surprisingly.
The next morning, it was awfully quiet. I came into the kitchen to brew coffee, and lifted my eyebrows when I saw a giant safety cone on my kitchen table. I kid you not. I just chuckled and went back to my bedroom sipping my hot coffee.
The boys, apparently had a history with taking these cones from various places and returning them later.
Hence the safety cone Christmas ornament to lift her spirits and always make her chuckle when she sees it.
