Then we had our small group yesterday evening. The kids were wanting to play outside and so I took them to the park. The kids ranged in age from 2yrs-12yrs. We had five of them and I'm telling you what, they were hilarious!!!
- they love to have fun
- they love to have fun doing the simplest of things
- they love to play chase
- they love to make their own 'bases' (you remember, safety zones)
- they love to make a base on a bark chip if they know you are going to catch them
- they love to slide down slides and get thrown in the air
- they love swings
- they love to rough house when they know they can hit someone bigger and not get hit back
- they love to laugh
- they love to get dirty because they've never done laundry
- they love to scream really loud
- they love to just be a kid
I was struck once again at their perfect innocence and perfect view of how life should be lived.
What I love the most about kids is their ability to love and accept and trust. We would do exceptionally well to guard these virtues in them with our very lives.
MTC!
