Savoring the sweet moments

The boys are playing with a boomerang down in a field near our house. As usual I sent the walkie talkie with them. I was buried in a project I'm trying to finish when the walkie talkie started beeping. The boomerang was stuck in a tree and they didn't know what to do.

Normally I would have been annoyed at the interruption.

Today, however, I walked down to the field and personally rescued the boomerang from that tree.

And I came bearing lollypops.

What a wonderful post, Betsy. If we can hold onto that joy, we have everything.

:) that's good. That's the right perspective I suppose.

Those who come bearing lollypops are the sweetest folks of all...

I'd like to cash in that hug now, if you don't mind...
