Joy


In the years to come, I will think back to this photo and remind myself of how joyous parenting can be. The simplicity in the beauty that is childhood is such a distant object in my memory. I want to grasp that feeling of self-assuredness, pride and silliness that was my life, but, that would be selfish of me to be sillier and prouder than my children, so I graciously let them be kids.
I am sure it is still in me, easily re-discovered as simply as placing a hat on a child's head.
