They were playing outside in the fresh spring air. |
|
James, 10, came bounding through the door, a bolt of energy. |
|
"Mom, I was looking up at the trees where the buds were, and you know what?"
"What?" I respond. |
|
"There are leaves there now. All new and green." |
|
"Oh, that is wonderful, honey! Spring is here, isn't it?"
He paused for a moment and I could see he was contemplating whether or not to ask me to go with him to look at them and then he said,
"Can I take some pictures, please?" |
|
"Of course, " I said, handing him the camera. |
|
He was only gone a short while, and then he bounded back in.
"Look at them!" he said, handing me the camera, excited to share them with me. |
And now, I am excited to share them with you.
