Irrational Desires

I had an irrational desire to buy something today at the toy store.

A white Pegasus, spreading its wings.

It was a hand-painted play figurine from the display of dragons and orcs and knights. It was magical, but I did not buy it because I am not seven years old any more. But maybe I should have, and tied a ribbon around it, and called it a Christmas tree ornament.

You should! I got a huge stuffed horse a few weeks ago or a month ago. I felt ridiculous, but I seriously wanted it. Then, I tried to tell myself it should be Celeste's Christmas present instead, because I was too old for it. But you know what? I kept it for myself. And, I'm glad I did. Nothing wrong with us letting our inner child out sometimes...keeps us better in tune with our kids. :)
