One thing he has figured out already, in the still short time they have known each other, is that the best gift for Lili will be to give her a home. She needs roots and a solid foundation. And he's finding out that he does, too.

Aw! He should have recorded that for her, and all of the processes up to it, too. That would have made a brilliant Christmas present.
