Kids are wise. My niece Sofia is a font of wisdom. It has been a rough couple of months in all of our lives. I imagine for a turning-five year old it has been really tough.
I am paraphrasing here, and the wisdom was relayed through my mother, but Sofia shared this thought over the weekend:
Everything is really messed up in this city right now. I wish you were better and Pop Pop were better and everything would get back to normal.
I couldn’t agree with you more kid. Here’s to “normalcy” whatever it is that that means for you. Normalcy is underrated.
She’s so adorable! Hard to believe she’s already 5! Kids always have a way of assessing situations and using simple wisdom to put things in prospective.
I know…5…crazy. Her birthday was yesterday. We have a birthday dinner planned for her tonight. I am biased of course but I think the is adorable also 🙂
Yes kids do have the gift for cutting away all the garbage and getting to the heart of things. To bad we lose that ability.
