Magic Fairy Dust
April 29, 2019
I had this tiny little bottle of micro-fine fairy dust powder. I will tell you this tiny bottle lasted me for more than seventeen years. I think I can still find it. It sat in a basket in my kitchen cabinet. When my kids went off to school on a tough day or on the day of a big test or speech, I snuck up and put the tiniest speck of this almost invisible glitter on their shoulder; I told them I would be with them all day long, and I was proud of them. As they got older, they almost killed me; I would do a sneak attack and invariably they smiled. They would carry my love with them all day long! I don’t know if I did it for me or for them, but this magic little bottle made them brave when they were small and brought them luck when they were tall. Such a silly little thing; I think it’s called love.
