Saturday was the day after Sam's flu bug. He ate a little breakfast and seemed almost his old self, but was still a little quiet. He was sitting in the bathroom watching me fix my hair in the morning. I told him that Daddy was going to Home Depot while I was at the craft show. I expected him to get excited about Home Depot, because he really likes that store. Instead, he said "You are going to a craft show? I AM going with you." And that was that. He quickly got ready, and had Bill help him get his coat and boots on. I did pack a stroller because I didn't think he had the energy to be on his feet the whole time.
Sam did enjoy the craft show. He sat quietly in his stroller...unless we saw a booth with candles for sale. Then, this is what you saw. My four-year-old carefully smelling and studying every candle on the table:
Sam got two new candles. He insisted on holding them, and whenever we stopped to talk to a vendor, he would make them smell his candles. No one can resist Sam's smile and his genuine excitement over two small candles. Lots of people smelled Sam's candles that day!
