The toothbrush cup
There are moments that stand out above and beyond all others. Usually these moments are nothing shiny, nothing flashy just pure and simple joy.
As I reached for my toothbrush the other night I noticed that it was not alone.
It was sleepover night at my house and a bedroom of girls were staying over. It made me smile when I saw a little pink toothbrush next to mine. This simple act spoke to me. It said, “I am comfortable in your home. I feel acceptance here. I feel loved.”
Maybe it’s a stretch, maybe I’m reaching here, but I think the placement of a toothbrush says a lot.
When you’re staying over at a friend’s where do you put your toothbrush? Do you keep it in your bag? Leave it on the counter? Or put it in the cup? Typically, when staying with friends, I keep mine in my makeup bag, unless I feel at completely welcome and at home where I am. Then, and only then does my toothbrush find it’s home in the cup.
I am so glad the kids feel like they are at home when they are here, because in a way they are.
Peace, love and toothbrush cups,
Rachel
