I love trying to see the world through my daughter's eyes. There are so many things that we take for granted that she has never had the chance to experience. One example...grass! The first time she saw it, she looked down and decided that there was no way she was going to step on that strange looking stuff. Then, we showed her that it was perfectly safe to walk in, and she was certainly not convinced. It took a little time to show her that it was fine, and now she loves to run through it. The other day, I decided to take her shoes off and REALLY let her feel the grass. This was her reaction...
Then she couldn't help herself. :)
Imagine never experiencing grass! It made me think of all of the children that are there until they are 5...8...10...12 years old and they have never felt grass!!! The things we take for granted! God thank you for grass, trees, flowers, and all the beautiful things you bless us with each day.
I am so glad things are going well. We praise the Lord for His faithfulness to you and Hayley.
