The Innocence of a Child
Good Morning my good buddys. Hope this morning finds you all healthy and happy. Remember life is very short, so live it to the fullest and most of all find something to smile about. Make a stranger smile, it just might make there day so much brighter
I was thinking about my little grandson Talan, and my smile just comes alive. I get this certain feeling in my heart…such a feeling of unexplained love. A love unlike any other.
I find myself laughing about his little shannigans LOL. Like the other day for instance, he loves to pull my reading glasses out of my purse, and say “Gramma here your glasses” he continues to put them on my face. I’m praying the whole time because he is pulling them wide open, almost breaking them. He has already broke my favorite pair, but hey material items can be replaced.
Well I had taken Angela to her pregnancy checkup and I had my glasses when I picked her and Talan up. When we were shopping I couldn’t find them. I just was sick, we looked all over the car, under the seats and nothing :( I figured they were set down in the docs office, or maybe lost shopping.
Two days later Angela called and said with excitement in her voice “Mom you won’t believe what Talan just brought out of his room” I said, what I have no idea. She said just guess. I said I HAVE NO IDEA TELL ME!!!!!
Talan walked out of his bedroom with my purple eyeglass holder, with my glasses inside. Somehow that little guy had confiscated my glasses and had them in his room…LOL!!!!
So innocent on his part, frustrating for a bit, but oveall very funny. His innocence is so beautiful and refreshing to me. I watch as he repeats EVERY word…..”giggling” I mean EVERY word. We have to be very very careful. He’s heard his father say this one time too many “Oh Shit” and of course Talan loves his daddy, so he says it all the time. No reason, just says it.
Angela and I were getting hair done and eyebrows waxed, and as I sat in the chair getting my hair done, little Talan walks up to the hairdresser and looks at her…Angela is calling him back to come sit while Gramma gets her hair done, and he looks up and says in this quiet little voice Oh Shit. OMGoodness, Angela wanted to just crawl under the chair, and I held back laughing, and everyone in the beauty shop was laughing. It was all so innocent, he has no idea what it means, but to hear it coming out of his little mouth is just funny. Angela disciplined him of course, so we watch our mouthes carefully.
So my buddys, lets find some of the innocence of the children. Lets have a happy, silly, stress free (as much as possible) Life full of God, love, and comfort for each other.
As my father would say “Jane, we only go through this life one time, so lets make it the best we can” And Always find a reason to smile
Love you all from the bottom of my heart. Sending you all peace, innocence, and Gods blessings as we walk together on our journey to healthy eating and healthy living.
