Murphy was about ninety-five percent sure he'd turned into the most boring adult possible, at least at the moment. He still wasn't entirely sure when he'd gotten so responsible, but the fact remained that it'd happened. And okay, sometimes it wasn't so bad. Like now, when responsibility meant nothing more than Christmas shopping. Alright, mostly just finding Christmas decorations. Walmart's Christmas insanity meant there was no shortage of stuff to look through.
It was something that almost nobody would ever expect to find him doing, aside from anybody who knew how much of a sap he was when it came to his kids. He'd decided early on that he was going to make sure they grew up with a better life than he'd ever dreamed of.
And if there was one thing John Murphy was, it was determined.
If there was another thing he was, it was confused by Christmas ornaments. He wasn't sure why, really, aside from the fact that there were so many to choose from -- and considering he was trying to pick one for each of the kids, was planning on doing that for the rest of forever, it made things a lot more difficult.
Shaking his head with a bemused smile, he turned his attention back to the couple of ornaments he'd been considering.
