Sunday Scribblings: Anticipation {When Will the Joy Come?}

IMG_0164

Me: You have been soooooo helpful! What a good boy you are being. Thank you so much! …You must really want Santa to come.

Little Guy: No, I want joy to come!

Me: {melting} well, it worked! I feel joy! I’m so glad you’re mine.

Little Guy: {snuggling in} Tell me about the thing with the line again…

Me: Well, if I had every little boy in the whole world all in a big line, and I could only choose one, I would look them all over and talk to all of them, and in the end I would choose you, ‘cause you’re my very favorite one.

Geez. That is adorable. (And then Monday comes and he hits Abby and has to be bribed to be good in the post office). It makes you wonder what life would be like if every day was Sunday...
