We were both leaning over the case,
Examining spiral hams.
He was 17ish
He turned to me and asked
When is Christmas?
Well, today is the 15th, so 10 more days.
Christmas is in 10 DAYS!
Yep, just ten days. We can do this.
Yeah! Killer!
He held up his hand -
A hand bigger than mine
A high five
As his mom ushered him away,
I thought
Only two words -
Pure joy
We can do this. Yup! (and spiral hams too!)
Love this!
