Tuesdays always seem to be long days for me. I don't know why, but they just seem to be longer than any other day of the week. Today is no exception.
With my trip home in just 2 days, my lunch hour was devoted to running errands: Target for some last minute travel supplies, the grocery store to get 2 meals for tonight and tomorow night's meals, the post office, etc., etc.
When I was in Target today, it was crazy busy. People buzzing about the store with baskets full of Christmas goodies. I was kind of aggravated, but turned a corner where a young mom was pushing a cart with her little girl, who I guess was about 4. The little girl was adorable with long blonde hair and big blue eyes that seemed to sparkle as sh
e took in all of the Christmas decorations and lights and blow up characters and she had a smile as big as Texas. I stopped to look at something and I heard the little girl exclaim to her mom: "Oooooh, Christmas is coming!"

It was that moment that I chose my joy for today: the innocent voice of a child filled with excitement and happiness.
Until Next Time,
Kel
