Smiles....they make all the difference.

You know what makes me smile?  Watching a grown man running with his shopping cart and then hopping on for a ride. Totally random.  Just for fun.  Gets me every time. 

You know what else makes me smile?  Hearing my kid call me "Ma".  I don't know why I like being called Ma but I do.  Like, "Are we going yet, Ma?  Let's go, Ma"  I think I heard that like 30 times today when I had my assistant, Coulter with me at work today.  I may have freaked if he had not so sweetly called me Ma. 

I had a couple of other smile moments today.  How can you not smile when you make someone smile?  I made my UCC co-op student, Kerri smile today when I asked her if I could get a picture of us together.  I then got another smile when I told her that I will miss having her around the store to help with our pricing and paper sorting and that she did a great job.  I then got the biggest smile of all when I told her we could go next door to DeKoko's to get a soda and a chocolate cupcake!  Thanks again Kerri (and her helper Rebecca) for all your assistance this semester!



I got a great reaction and smile at the end of my day (which just makes it all worth it) when I told our winner from our Retrofest draw that she was the big 'weiner'!   Yes, I know it was a month ago but frig' my kid....the one that calls me 'Ma'.....broke my camera and I just got another one!  I had to show you all AWESOME product Sarah Armstrong won.......

Over $150 worth, baby!  Congratulations, Sarah!  Hope you can have some fun playing.  What do you think?  Maybe I should do these a little more often!  But only if you smile....

And finally, I think I just had another 'smile' moment......writing on this blog.  This makes me happy.  I really should come here more often.  ♥Kim
