Recuscitation

Between driving up and back to Ballground for a closing on Friday evening, working in the yard on Saturday and driving back and forth between Griffin and Dunwoody on Sunday, come Monday morning I was tuckered. I did not get much sleep on the night before and was not very awake on Monday morning when I was driving Cindy to Southern Crescent Technical College.

Afterward, I had to drive over to Office Max to drop off a closing package for delivery to the lender. When I got there there was a young mother and her toddler son, who appeared to have had some type of surgery, as he had a tube coming out of his mouth. As the mother waited for the clerk to make copies and ring up the sale, the little boy walked around staring at the world of Office Max.

Finally, his eyes lit on my face and I smiled down at him. At the receipt of my smile, the little boy came forward and hugged me around the knees. It happended so quickly and not many of the people in the store seemed to notice. It did make my morning and allowed my world to rescusitate from the slumber in which it had been travelling up to that point.
