Yesterday, a six year old little boy was in the shop with his mother and three year old sister. I asked him what he was hoping to get for Christmas. He described some toy for me that I had not heard of before and in all seriousness stated, "I hope I don't get coal!" When I asked him if he thought he had been bad and was going to get coal he said, "I know that sometimes Santa gives out coal and I hope I don't get it. But, if I do, I will use it to cook my hot dog." I was so touched I almost cried. This little boy seemed to know how to turn a negative into a positive. Perhaps in this difficult year for many of us it is a lesson we can all learn from. Thank you Ben, you are wise beyond your years and your parents must be so proud of you! Something tells me, Santa didn't give you any coal.
