The kids got lots of Valentine's candy yesterday, though to my disappointment, not as much as last year. Last year the volume of sweets were comparable to the quantity they collect at Halloween. Oh well, its for the better...as it is coming up on those 'few short weeks' before we leave for Florida...and when I have to fit into my shorts again. I really really don't want to have to wear sundresses all through Disney.
Today I loaded some things into the back of my minivan...and there it was. A little shiny gold gem, overlooked by an unfortunate little girl, falling into the abyss of the side of her seat but into the great wide open of the trunk...a Reese's Peanut Butter cup!
It was still wrapped! It was new! It wasn't melted! It was MINE!
Oh how candy goes so well with coffee...and while I popped it into my mouth and hid the evidence of the wrapper under garbage in the wastebasket, in my head I thanked my little girl for sharing with me...even if she didn't mean to.
