Avery’s leaf

Some of you may have seen me write about this on Facebook, but when we were rushing to school the other day Avery stopped to pick up a pretty, large maple leaf on the ground. After inspecting it for awhile, she proudly carried it to Zoe’s classroom and then to her own – and seeing how happy the leaf made her made me happy. It also reminded me of one of the lessons we should take from children: to slow down and enjoy the little pleasures in life. Kids, especially small ones, are so good at doing that…
