Came over via Five Star Friday. Hello!
This brought me to quick tears, too. They really are little Zen masters, and I’m so happy you were present for your lesson.
Cheers~

Oh, Matthew, that is really a gorgeous post. Love like that is the kind that can only come after you have a child and no one can explain it to you or give you even a glimpse of what it truly is…but you come really close.

It’s amazing, isn’t it? My heart swells just reading your post. Thinking of my own daughter, 3.5 yrs old, inviting me to play from time to time. Imagining my son doing the same when he’s older.

Beautifully written, and it brought tears to my eyes.
Thank you.

Brilliantly written post, sir. Just brilliant.

Parenting is not just about what we can teach our kids; it’s about what they can teach us about ourselves.
