I have always been in awe of the magic children see that we no longer seem to see. One of my absolute favorite things is taking children outside in a open field or to a forest. They see the beauty in everything God has created.
I think as adults we get so busy with our lives and being busy….we never stop to smell the roses anymore. We don’t take the time to smell the fall leaves, to really touch things and feel the texture they have. I even have to remind myself to not take moments for granted and fully embrace in them. You can never get that minute back.
Let those kids play in the dirt, touch moss, squish mud in between their toes, ( you should try this too, I guarantee it will make you smile) My kids love when it rains and they can go divert the moving waters paths. The favorite right now is making giant leaf piles and swinging from a vine to jump into it. Loosen up a bit and let them children run free!! Can you feel the wonder below that is captured in the moment??
