Perspective on Time

We had just finished listening to Elizabeth sing in her school choir. I told the kids that I needed to run to the store really quickly before returning home. The prospect of them receiving a treat silenced any objections. When we got to the store and were walking through the parking lot, Emma asked, "Mom, what time is it?" I answered, "It is a little after 7:00." She enthusiastically exclaimed, "Cool, we have a whole hour to waste!"
