Mostly taking photos and watching them. Soaking them in the way they were soaking in the nicer weather. I watched my oldest lie (lay?) on the ground, spread out her limbs, and revel in all that is the sky. The wind blew the leaves all around her, swirling about, and I could hear her laughing across the yard. Yesterday, I was out again, this time just with the young boy. He was off and exploring, picking up single blades of grass and ripping leaves to bits, so I took the opportunity to lie on the ground, just like my oldest daughter did only 2 days prior. It was something I used to do when i was young and out exploring on my own. I layed where she lay. It was a beautiful view, and the ground felt so solid beneath me. What's the point of all this? She reminded me to slow down; notice; watch the clouds; soak it all up. I'm going to turn around, and they'll be off on their own and it will feel like I've blinked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
