Before I made it to the grocery store, I stopped by the library to pick up a few books. When I walked through the door I saw about fifty (or so) children sitting on the floor listening to the librarian read a Christmas story. My guess is that they were four and five year-olds.
They were stinkin' adorable.
I watched them as they watched the story teller. Wide eyes and smiles. Oohs and Ahhs. Giggles and surprised expressions.
When the book was finished, all of the children applauded and shouted for another one. As I checked my books out, they were singing "Rudolph" with antlers (hands) on their heads.
The innocence of those precious children, filled with wonder and joy, made my heart smile.
No matter what else was going on in the world today, these kids were just enjoying a good book and having fun on this sweet December day.
I hope today, you can do the same thing.
