The Way Children See Things!

[Verlyn]

When we were moving off base to the house we had just bought when I left the Navy, my youngest son was 7 and was helping me move my tools to the house. The road wound by a creek that had a small park with a duck crossing sign. He looked at it each time we passed and got really quiet each time. Finally, on the 5th pass, he asked me, "Dad, how do the ducks know that's where they have to cross the road?"

that has to be the just the most awesome feeling...knowing that they see things for what they are, untainted by society. Man I wish I could still think like that without being thrown in the loony bin...

I could name at least two or three little kids I know in everyone of those scenerios. Great post.
