Wishful Thinking

It’s a brisk, damp fall morning. I’ve just gotten Michael out of the van, and we’re walking toward Ms K’s.

Michael looks down on the sidewalk in front of her house.

“Hey, look at all these monies!”

“Money?” I ask. “Where?”

“All over the ground!” He stirs the leaves with his foot. “See?”

“The leaves are money?”

“Yeah!”

I hope you always see it that way, my little boy.

  2. I really need a good dose of his perspective every day. I think that’s why God sent him to us.

  3. That’s pretty cool.

  4. Reminder!!!!! You have an important meeting starting in 10 minutes!

  5. You remembered! I’m touched. I might actually be on time to it today, too. That’ll be a first.
