the world through his eyes

i love the awe and the amazement my baby enjoys when he feels the touch of a baby lady bug on his skin, the look in his eyes when one lands on his arm, when his chubby little finger points to the tiny red insect crawling, tickling his delicate little self. his giggle that starts in his tummy and erupts out his happy grin. trying to catch it as it flies away.

It's fun seeing kids reactions to things. They get so intrigued by the simplest things. Have you ever thought of writing poetry? You would be good at it.

ah, I also love watching little ones discover things for the first time. I remember when Bella was little and first discovered worms. She loved to hold them and let them wiggle around in her tiny hands.
Sometimes they aren't always as kind. The other day we had a pile of ants on our drive-way and Lilly quickly went to work stomping on them. hehe
