More Water

Everyday Hannah reminds me of how awesome it must be to be child. And by that I mean, how little it takes to get excited about things.

Recently Hannah has had this fascination with water! Yes, something she has been very familiar with her whole life, but is now the coolest thing ever. For those of you who don't know, we live REALLY close to Lake Pontchartrain and we go over it all the time. Well, if you were driving with us last week, you would have thought we had never gone over the lake or played on the lakefront. It was hilarious. She was so excited I thought she might jump out of her car seat. She kept saying "More water Mommy," and "WOW" and "Look Mommy, water."

When we pass by fountains, she says, "More water Mommy." And a few weeks ago, I was finishing up painting my house, and Hannah figured out that if she had some paint on her hands that I would run and put her hands under WATER! You can imagine what went on after that.

I guess the point of this is that sometimes we should stop and try to look at the world through a child's eyes. It must be amazing.
