I was out doing a little
Christmas shopping on Saturday afternoon with my kiddos in tow and we
were having a blast checking out the toy aisles at Canadian Tire. We
were pressing every button on every toy, making as much noise as the
toys would allow (so much fun when it is not in your own home!).
And then “the” song started...
All I Want For Christmas.
I know it is inevitable to hear over
the holidays. It is a beautiful song. I really do love that it reminds
me of Claire yet it also makes me so sad and a tad angry too. I was
holding back tears and then a woman rounded the aisle and noticed what
song was playing and a huge smile came on her face and she started to
sing along in a really amazing voice. That did me in. I told the boys to
continue looking while I checked the next aisle over.
I went to the next aisle and pulled myself together and then continued on my ‘merry’ way.
All this emotion and it isn’t even December yet.
Yikes... what I am in for this year?
