Through the eyes of a child

Oh what I wouldn't give to have bottled about 15 minutes of childlike wonder tonight.  We drove Austin, Carter, Drake, and Braden down to see the Jolly Holiday Lights in Des Moines.  We turned on the Christmas music as we drove through the twinkling, festive display of lights. Within minutes of starting our journey, Austin ended up on my lap, Braden was perched in the middle of Aaron and I on the console, and Carter and Drake had their noses up to the side windows.  Little voices were signing Christmas songs, oohing and aahing and soaking it all in.  I could have sat their enjoying their amazement for hours!
