My young teacher

"The older I am, the younger are my teachers"  
I read this today on Instagram this morning, and  I've been ruminating on it ever since.  I know that I have been reminded to appreciate the little things, to be present in the moment, and to celebrate victories, large and small!  All this from my almost-two-year-old grandson.

Truth!

Thursday 13 - How do I love thee?


I spent the morning child minding my little 20 month old grandson, the light of my life! So, I thought, why not list the ways to show love to my little sweet pea?

1. give him a home baked oatmeal scone
2. read a book, especially one where he has to lift the flaps or find objects!
3. chase him around
4. teach him how to play hide and seek
5. twirl him around in a swivel chair, first one way, then the other
6. turn on the music and dance with him
7. snuggle with him
8. have a sleepover
9. smother him with kisses
10. carry him around and  let him touch the trinkets and decor around your home
11. let your hand puppet talk to him
12. let him throw doggie toys for Enzo the chi to retrieve
13. tickle him
