I woke up, a bit ago, and I realized I’m missing something.
This week has been highly planned, every second
scheduled. It’s been fun, you know I
love people, and I’ve seen a million of them.
But…
I need to see a kid.
Pronto.
I need to know that it’s not all business. That there is pure, unadulterated fun out
there somewhere.
That not EVERYTHING is planned and plotted.
That not EVERY COMMENT is within a framework, carefully formed and uttered.
I need to see through someone else’s eyes.
I need to hear questions.
Pontification from the viewpoint of a 3 footer. You know, because it COULD be that way.
I need to give hugs.
Encouragement. “You CAN do it!” “YAY!”
I need to be told, “C’mon, Janie, come play with me!”
Spontaneity.
Yup.
Now, how? I’m not
home, not planning on visiting anyone with munchkins this weekend.
Nor, do I have my camera with me. (I can usually get people to play - get out of business mode - when I have my camera. And that's fun, for them and I…I enjoy making people laugh, and capturing it via image.)
Hmmmm.
I’ll report back soon.
Take a quick trip to Chuckie Cheese... that will cure your ache real fast.
ReplyDeleteI have two grandchildren who are great visitors. I just don't know how to get them to where you are.
