Eyes of a Child




I recently spent the day with my great-granddaughter.  Life is so fun with kids!  I do appreciate that I had my kids and grandkkids young as I don't have near the energy now that I did for them.  LOL

It's wonderful to see life though a child's eyes.  So here is what a day with Amelia can be like.

A mylar balloon becomes a floating anchor.  You are the 'matey' and can help her pull it down. This is repeated several times as it just keeps floating away. This same mylar balloon is also a great punching bag and offers lots of giggles.

The pillows on the loveseat can be rearranged and with the help of a blanket it becomes a great hide-away house.  Those same pillows if arranged on the floor will become a 'jump pit'.  This is especially fun when Grampa comes home and throws you in the jump pit.

Macaroni and cheese is a fun thing to eat if you get bored.

Everyone needs family.  Even a dead worm.  Also, please note that if worms spend to much time in the sun they die.  Even biiiggg worms.

Trash men going by picking up the garbage are fun to watch.  Their truck is awesome!

All birds in the world are your friends.

If  you go into the kitchen in your socks it's like ice skating and is lots of fun.

Climbing on top of Grandma's head is fun - but can also be a little bit scary because it is so high.

If given a choice of which plate you want to eat off of, always choose one with snowmen because snowmen are fun.
