The Innocent Eyes of Children...




While watching a movie with my two year old niece, she says to me, "Look at the Earth Blue, it's so beautiful!"

Simple things like that is what I work on living for.  So young, but they view life in such a beautiful way.

The first time they touch a flower it's the feeling of new life.  The first time they taste their favorite food, their taste buds start to dance.

The first time they see an airplane, they stare up at the sky with the widest eyes.  The birds, "but mommy how does it fly?" inquiring minds.

I can touch, feel, walk is something that excites them.

My two year old godson was crying.  My niece proceeded to grab a tissue and ask him why he was so sad while wiping his tears and telling him, "it's ok, don't be sad."  They hardly speak but know how to communicate.  How is it that two and three year olds know how to communicate so well and adults lack that skill?

They touch, feel and speak sometimes without words.

I know as we get older we all learn different life lessons, but that should not take away from the simple things in life we learn.
