A Day With Camille




It is pretty obvious what I did today. We drove to Searcy from Starkville, Mississippi late last night so we could spend the day with Camille. First stop: McCain Mall in North Little Rock to see Santa Claus. She talked about that all they way to Little Rock. After pictures with Santa, we took her shopping and let her pick out some clothes. Of course, I guided her to the sales racks. As we were paying, Camille was laughing and happy. After lunch, we headed to Wal-Mart to do some of our Christmas shopping. She wanted to ride the horse at the entrance and of course, she was granted that wish. After looking at the fish and walking up and down the toy aisles, we did what we needed. By this time, Camille is getting tired so we headed back to Searcy. Marc graciously volunteered to stay and take a nap with her while I frantically tried to finish my Christmas shopping.

Camille is almost three, just that wonderful age for Christmas. To see and share her excitement about every little thing, Santa, the lights, the trees, the presents, was a delight and joy today. I hope everyone can have that childlike awe this holiday season.
