Children Understand

"Mommy, I'm happy" was the first comment I heard from a boy near me in the mall while I was Christmas shopping. I thought it was cute, but at first his mother dismissed the comment. He continued to say how happy he was and his mother asked him why. With this, he responded, "Everyone around here is happy, so that makes me very happy!"
I found it amazing that through the busyness of the shoppers running through the mall, he could still sense the holiday cheer. It is the children who can teach us to take a step back and admire the beauty that is constantly around us.
