Spontaneity, a simple, everyday word in the life of children. It is what makes them children, carefree, enjoying each and every moment as it goes by!
My little man is going to be 7 in a few days and the mom in me is panicking! He reaches as tall as my shoulder and very very soon is going to be taller than me. My baby, my little one ❤ ❤
I love the innocence of this age, they are big enough to be able to reason with (well mostly!) but still have a carefree aura about them. They truly live every moment of their lives, living in every moment, a free spirit and enjoying it with such exhilarating enthusiasm that it makes me want to be a child again!
We had 2 bonus snow days (truly a rarity in London!) and me and my son absolutely adore snow! But it was only one of us who was going to get to play and of course it had to be him – the joy of watching (and clicking!) him having a swell time trumps all other thoughts …..while Peppa Pig baby sat the tiny one, we headed into our back garden and let loose!
He scooped and tossed, clapped and tossed some more, ate a little and then came the flurry on mummy!!! Good for me that my camera was cling wrapped (handy if its constantly snowing!) and I had the lens shielded with my hand – well, it was an unspoken call to let the camera be and to join in the awesome fun – and thats exactly what we did for the next hour!
The lesson is simple: live, love, laugh, play and learn – its ok to take a break and just have some unadulterated fun!!
