This last Saturdy my dad and the kids made a HUGE pile of leaves. We all know what that means... Geronimo!!! My brother, (up above) came into town and joined in the fun. :)
FIRST.... the big pile.
SECOND... the big jump. (Or in our case, a huge toss from Grandpa!)

LAST BUT NOT LEAST... a huge roar of laughter! :)
It didn't matter how cold or wet the leaves were, they all piled in! :)
As I have become a mom, I have come to regain the excitement for each new season and any kind of weather it brings. It is such a delight to watch kids get such a thrill out of the simplest things. Like a leaf pile... and it's free, nothing to it! They weren't kidding when they said 'children are your greatest treasures.' I thank God for these little treasures.

I want to jump in the pile!! It is great to have a reminder to have joy in the simple things of life.
One of my favorite scriptures is "Children are an heritage of the Lord." I totally know what you mean, we couldn't wait to have a Christmas with kids, it brings back all the magic.
So fun! Kids are the best at bringing out the fun in everything!
