Little Buddy

We met at a park...

His Momma said that he would probably need some time to warm up...

Ahhhh, little boys...

What is that nursery rhyme?  snips and snails and puppy dog tails?

It truly amazes me certain differences in little boys and little girls...

It's not that my girls didn't have their moments of pure adrenaline adventure, but it wasn't the "norm"...they were just naturally inclined toward other things (like tiny dolls and stacking things)...and this is even when their mother (aka: ME) dressed them in denim and NO BOWS their entire first years of life...

This little guy was exploring every nook and cranny...he was all for jumping and lunging and rolling in leaves...and even when he got just a bit of a bloody lip with his frolicking, he wasn't going to let it hold him back...

And OH the love this little guy has surrounding him...to give him the confidence to BE who he was made to be...I love, love, love seeing families that GET IT...they haven't forgotten the basics...the foundations that need to be set in order to build into their children...to grow character in them...

It starts with love with mom & dad...mutual respect and honor...this was evident in the way they just talked about and with one another...the way they worked together to corral the little guy too...

It was FUN and PLAYFUL and REAL...and it's LIFE being lived to the fullest!!!
