Treasured Light

On my way home from school one Friday I noticed a garage sale sign in my neighborhood.  I was so excited to see if they had anything I could turn into a treasure.  I pulled up to the sale and I could feel my heart pounding in my chest.  I get that way when I go to sales I can’t help myself.  I got out of my car and started up the drive way to see what they had.  I...
