Grasshoppers and Dragonflies Make for a Beautiful Day

Do your children ever surprise you with a stroke of genius sometimes?

My 5-year-old boy spontaneously came up with a lovely, simple song the other day while the two of us were throwing rocks into an easy-going river near our home:

♫Watching sticks that float! And watching rocks that sink! Watching grasshoppers and dragonflies! What a beautiful day!♫

Isn't that perfect? I had a wonderful time with him, sitting on the bank of the river among the tall grass and light breeze as we sang songs and threw rocks into the river. We even had a spotted frog friend who dutifully sat by us the entire time!

It was definitely one of those "life is good" days. So I attribute this love note to my son. I love you son, for making my life richer than I could ever hope for.  ♥♥♥
