Appreciating Company

We’ve been lucky the past two weekends to have company (family) visit our lovely abode.  It’s one of those things that I love so much and I am always happy to see them come around.  Mind you, it does get busy and sometimes personal time is needed, but these past two weekends were WONDERFUL.

I believe the best part is how our company interacts with my son.  I wonder if it’s because they don’t have kids of their own, that there is a special connection through him. Almost as if they are living their life for those few days, even sometimes just hours, through my son.  The entertainment that he gets, and enjoys so much is truly something I hold close to my heart. 

He seems to bring out the _kid_ in you.  Yup,  you go back to your childhood and act silly and well child-like.  I think this was most evident with the few hours spent in our backyard “pool”. Yes, quoted pool.  It’s a kids 4 foot diameter, less than one foot deep splash puddle…… It brings hours of entertainment to anyone who is subjected to the question… well more of a demand from my son.  In his words, “Get in the pool!” “Stand dere, watch me swim!”

Thank you to all my family that comes to play with my son!
