Ball!

So, I'm driving down to pick the kids up from school today, and Kelcie fell asleep, so I'm having an occasional conversation with Talin. He points out a motorcycle going by, I think. Then, I'm sitting at an intersection that sometimes backs up for over 1/2 a mile (those of you down there probably know which one), and I hear "Mama! Ball!". I didn't think much of it the first time. After a few minutes I hear it again and happen to look back and he's pointing out the window. So, I quickly look to find what he is looking at. The "ball" was one of the water towers and, sure enough, it was a perfect white "ball"! I got so excited and told him "I see it, I see it!" He got excited, too, and said something that sounds like "I see it!" We move a little forward and it hides behind a hill "Mama! Ball! Whe-is-it?" We were having so much fun with this "ball". Soon, it reappeared - "The-i-is!" "Ball!" So cute! I love rediscovering the world through my kids. This age is so fun because everything is new and they are trying so hard to express themselves. I think they just love it when they are understood. Moments like those you just treasure and appreciate your kids. Too sappy? - sorry.
