I visited my sis yesterday

Whilst she was babysitting her two grandkids ages 3 and 5

My grandkids are grown

I had forgotten what it was like with the little ones

They never stop moving 

Like being in a whirlpool

They twirl and talk and laugh and inquire

Like dancing dervishes

Round and round

Lift up the compost lid to see the array of smelly food inside

Crawl through the doggie door pretending to be a cat

Bury little Lego people under rocks until they are rescued by the little Lego guy who doesn't die

Bump the grown ups' feet with the red and yellow Little Tikes car

Oh my

It is so much fun

I want to be like them

Joyful energetic engaged excited

Ok I'll settle for watching them 

Enthralled

Until time to say goodbye to my sis

Out the front door I go 

To the still, quiet world

Goodbye for now little ones
