Costco

I was at costco today and some interesting things happened. First of all I have to let you all know how much I love costco. I think it is one of my favorite stores. I buy everything there. Books, clothes, food, and toiletries. I just love that I can go and my kids get snacks and it is reasonably priced. Today their were only 3 samples. How odd. And I think the Christmas spirit has left people. I was getting cut off and people were in a big hurry I guess. But the samples were good and the ladies were friendly. We paid and went to get in line for lunch. Not something I had planned but it was late and I new Riley would fall asleep on the way home. I noticed there were more than normal amounts of soldiers their today but I do know that some Salem National Guard soldiers are getting ready to deploy. So that was why. But it sure made me miss my husband. Remembering back to just 4 short months ago when he left. I love you honey.
So, we get our food and go to sit down and there is a lady there. She has at least three kids. She has the one move so I can get by and we sit in our spot. Not next to them but down a ways. However, we were blessed :( to be close enough to hear her yell, humiliate her child and herself and call the child stupid. Now I am sorry. But is that really necessary? Now I know we all have our moments of pure frustration but seriously. I mean to say that the child (whom I never heard or saw do anything) needs to have her mother tell her what a brat she is. How life is easier with out her and how dumb and stupid she is. I was dying inside for the poor little thing. There were others sitting around that could also hear it. And as the mother says look everyone is looking at you because you are such a brat and being so bad. I wanted and still wish I would have leaned over and said actually we are all looking at you and the fool you are for talking to your kid like that. But of course me being me just couldn't do it. I just pray some one wonderful and kind comes into that childs life and shows her Jesus.
