The Grass is Always Greener...When You're 4 Years Old

 On Wednesday Bella was coming with me to a meeting, and we had to walk through an alley to get to the building we were going to. All of a sudden she had a big smile on her face and said, "Look Mommy! The green grass is growing in the cracks!" I stopped for a moment to look down at the street. Sure enough there were little patches of grass peeking out from between the cracks in the pavement. So I said, "Yes it is, and you know, I wouldn't have noticed that if you hadn't mentioned it."

I learned something from this story...did you?

I like it much better than, "step on a crack and you'll break your mother's back"! See, she really is an old soul. All that magic in one tiny girl. She's enchanting and we all learn and smile. - gm
