New Year 2011

Happy new year!

After a long day, several movies, skipped meals, a long late nap, and a Skype chat with The New Havens ringing in the new year EST style we headed off to bed before the advancing timeline.

But…

The WeeOne persisted and when the fireworks started blasting she sprang to the window like a holiday story.
For the next fifteen minutes we got the four year olds guide to the cut, color, clarity, and carat of each bang.
In the end she gave the spectacular only one thumbs up,

I wanted to see more.

oooooohhhhhh

  1. Happy New Year ! Love “she sprang to the window like a holiday story” and love that she wanted to see more. A lot of us in that club.

  2. Yep; I agree that the phrase “… she sprang to the window … ” was a great line.
    So too was, “… the four year old’s guide to the cut, color, clarity, and carat of each bang.” a reminder of the gift of visualization, and almost poetic description, that seems to be best retained by the youngest among us.

    Happy New Year to All!!
