The Perfect Picket Fence


The Perfect Picket Fence

            Tom and Allie’s ten-year anniversary was coming up in a few months, and Tom knew that he absolutely had to have the perfect present for his perfect wife. Allie had stood by him through his ups and downs in work and put up with more than he could thank her for. Tom had been brainstorming for weeks now. He’d just about been to every jewelry store in town, but nothing seemed to exceed the expectations he had for his wife.

She’d been such a caring, and loving partner for the past decade. What could he possibly give her that would mean as much to her and she did to him? Then it hit him…. Eight years ago when they’d had their first child and needed a bigger home they’d moved a little ways out of town to an older, white, wooden house. There were so many wonderful things about their southern, suburban home. It was the perfect size. A peaceful little creek ran melodiously through the woods just at the end of their property. But their favorite part was the big, beautiful yard where they ha set up a play set, a tire swing, soccer nets, and houses for their dogs.
 
The only drawback to their peaceful little property was that it was just off the main road where cars came flying around the corner, and with five beautiful children between eight and two Tom definitely worried. Allie had made comments occasionally about her childhood home and how she loved the white picket fence that enclosed her family’s farm. Her eyes always sparkled when she told stories of her brothers and sisters sitting on the fence eating watermelon and watching the sun set on summer evenings.

Tom knew that building Allie the perfect white picket fence for their ten-year anniversary was the perfect gift. It would be a wonderful way to remind Allie of all her wonderful childhood memories, and make some of their own. Not to mention, Tom would feel much safer with a fence keeping the kids from wandering into the road or creek.
