The Joy in Stairs and Brooms

Today I am grateful for the family time we shared this weekend and especially for time with both of our grandsons Aaron and Leo.

I included a picture of Leo in a recent post. Here is our younger grandson Aaron. He is almost 19 months old and is a little guy on the move.

He had fun both indoors and out, with two-legged animals and a four-legged one too. He particularly liked his many trips up and the down the stairs in our multi-level house, with an adult always in close proximity. His stairs skills don't quite match his speed and enthusiasm just yet.

Most of all, he enjoyed getting his hands on some of our brooms. Pushing some around in the garage and pushing this one around our kitchen. What a look (and sound to match) of thrill and excitement each time he closed back in on that broom. It was fun to participate with him and also witness his joy.

Pardon the pun, but our grandsons sweep us off our feet with reminders to find fun in the simple things and take time to play. Thank you Aaron and Leo. And thank you to your parents too!
