Yesterday, Audrey, Shawna, and I were in Target just browsing. We needed a couple hours out in the real world. We walked by the crayon aisle and I picked up a huge box of Crayola's and squeezed the box to see if they smelled better than the stale box of crayons I have at home. Oh my goodness, I was nearly knocked over with nostalgia. I was right back in first grade with my box of oversized box of crayons. The smell of the crayons plus the smell of the cardboard box reminded me so much of my Big Chief Tablet and my crayons. First grade.......
Also, it reminded me of Kress' basement looking for paper dolls and coloring books for my sisters for Christmas. Sometimes things just hit me.............. Tears were beginning to form in my eyes and I moved on.............. There's a time for sentimentality, but maybe not in Target, on Saturday, at noon!
By the way a new box of crayons will be in my shopping cart next week. They definitely smell better.
I love you!
