Today I met up with some friends and went to the first Christmas show of the season. At least, it was the first one I went to. The show was a combination of a craft fair and a local small business expo. We had fun checking out the different booths of Christmas decorations, unique gifts, jewelry, art, handmade items, and treats. My favorite part was the kids section. There was a whole area designated for children who made and sold their own items. Many of them had t-shirts that read “I am an entrepreneur”. I made sure to find a couple of things to purchase from a couple different tables and talked to the kids about their products. They were all pretty well spoken. One girl created beautiful watercolor greeting cards. Another made soaps. A couple of boys explained what glitter hair gel was and how to use it. The parents were all in the background if their children needed help, but they let the young people do the work. I loved that this show was so diverse as well as dedicated to helping kids learn how to run their own small business.
I Found God today seeing how a group of kids was encouraged and supported.
