We forget sometimes how to find the wonder in small things.

Can you remember as a child discovering hours of enjoyment in something small? A game, a book, a cardboard box.

Yesterday my daughter Dee Dee got a gift from friends (thank you Rain and family :-) - a colorable backpack. I believe it’s called a “Color a Bag.”


She desperately wanted to get home after an evening out and immediately set to work coloring at the dining room table, not stopping until she was done. I think she did well for just turning 5 years old.

We forget sometimes how to find the wonder in small things. Some of us have lost the ability entirely.
