Flashlights

Never underestimate the power of light.  There's a lot of meanings in that all of them good.  Today, it meant two kids having a marvelous time exploring on the way home (from the car across a small parking lot into the house).  Discoveries included:  leaves in the evergreen shrubs (I wonder where they came from?!), nails in the railroad ties at the edge of the parking spaces, the stairs, a skeleton under a spiderweb (decor of course), a ghost, a pumpkin and a "dark spooky house" (meaning we didn't turn the lights on when we came in and it was fun to look around with the flashlight).  Magic in moments. Nevermind those other ones....just turn the sound off.

I'm just catching up on your posts. I love how the whole page is of finding joy in small things, rejoicing in life, and realizing that some stuff just doesn't matter. Thanks for the reminder. :)
