Make Today A Feel Pretty Kind Of Day

---

This husband of mine suggested…

We go grab some food at HyVee…told his wife to forgo a shower…she looked fine…no one would notice…

Stopped at a lemonade stand…two little girls…their teenaged brother…all eyes lighting up…seeing a customer…

It was lemonade $1…with a catch…buy a lemonade…get a World’s Finest Chocolate candy bar…for free…

Bought one drink…and five chocolate bars…knew the school was fundraising…asked them to pick out their favorites…

And that’s…when excitement hit…one loves caramel…one loves milk chocolate…the little one…just tossed bars in a pile…regardless of kind…

Wrapping things up…milk chocolate girl says…in the quietest of voices…you look pretty…

No-one-will-notice-just-go-as-you-are me…was in no way…pretty…but heading to the car…she felt…pretty…

Because being kind…feels pretty…making someone smile…feels pretty…and having five of the World’s Finest Chocolate bars…to share with he who waits in the car…feels…well…ok…

Excessive…but sometimes…a girl’s gotta do…what a girl’s…gotta do…

And this husband of mine…agrees…
