In the chapter I read today, she suggested that you go to the children's section of a book store and spend an hour looking at the colorful artwork and charming stories. I did just that and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The best part was that the only other customers were a mother and child. They were seated at a small table and the mother was reading a book out loud to the child. The child was enthralled. It made me smile.
As I drove home and passed a doctor's office I saw another mother with two small children. The children had discovered the tree at the edge of the parking lot. It was a tree with two trunks and the V it formed came right down to the ground - a fascinating structure for small children to explore. Ah, to be observant and curious like a child. It made me smile.
Even though it is May, the weather is still cool and I am still wearing sweat shirts. Now that really makes me smile!
