“Happy and Sad Mixed Together”

Before heading home, we made a quick stop at Gourmet’s Coffee and Tea to have some coffee and dessert. As we were waiting for our orders to arrive, someone asked my 5-year-old nephew, Luis, if he was happy. His reply was an honest: “I feel happy… and sad. Happy and sad mixed together!” I don’t know why, but this is one of the best answers from a 5-year-old. I mean, with a relatively limited vocabulary, he managed to describe quite accurately how he felt at the time. He really amazes me with the breadth and depth of his knowledge and understanding!

Anyway, I felt happy and sad mixed together, too. :( Details on the uber short vaycay in my next blog entry. It’s 2:34 a.m. and I have to wake up for my Basic Life Support seminar tomorrow. *sigh*
