The other night, a woman approached me and said, “You don’t know me, and I don’t know you, but I just wanted to tell you that I ALWAYS put my cart up.”
Ma’am, you are the reason I should carry around medals stamped with Decent Human on them and hand them out to the unsung heroes of society.
My son and I were driving by the park the other day when he excitedly said, “WHOA! DAD! LOOK!”
Now, with my son, he could have seen many things. A large bird. Someone wearing a festive hat. A tricked out car. My son has a zest for life and really enjoys seeing cool things. And he loves sharing those experiences.
He looked as excited as an 11-year-old could after being told he was going to watch a seniors bowling tournament.
And the ice storm said, “Let there be light.”
And it said that directly about my front yard, after seven trees had to be removed thanks to the oh-so delicate pat from Ice Storm Pax a few months back.
