optimism

Just now I was packing my kids' things as we are returning home today. I noticed snowpants in my eight-year-old's backpack. He has had his snowpants out for weeks now. He wore them most of Tuesday--just sure the weatherman would finally deliver.

He didn't.

But Little Son remains determined and prepared for when the weather starts acting its age and brings us a good November storm.

What thing would you put into your backpack to express your own optimism, if it could be anything? Maybe my thing would be a passport.

That's a great idea for a post--thanks Geo!

p.s. I love your answer--a passport would be just the thing.
